I have thought long and hard about this. Perhaps, just perhaps, the Bible and science can be reconciled. It would involve both intelligent design AND evolution, however.

God makes the world, there's the Adam and Eve poofed into existence, then there's the murder and the women that didn't come from Eve, then there's the 2 of every animal thing and there was the flood. Now, obviously the world is covered in seaweed and all the plants are dead, and Noah really only had room for several species, and most of them died during the voyage from lack of food and/or were used as a sacrifice later on an altar. (Man, they prepared for everything!) But the one species which did survive was the bunny rabbit. And they had lots and lots and lots of bunny sex.

Now, there were rabbits EVERYWHERE and they had to eat something once all the other animals starved to death since all the plants were dead, so they ate up all the seaweed and then they left little rabbit poops which fertilized the entire landscape and they had so many litters of baby bunnies that they started evolving and changing and adapting into the many species we have today, like the bunnybear, the bunnychicken, and of course, the bunnybilled-platypus. Some bunnies even laid eggs and turned into reptiles, and that's why the Easter Bunny leaves us colored eggs everywhere. Each egg is a new species. So; with a rapidly mutating bunny species and lots of leftover seaweed, and... I dunno... magic beans which turned into all the existing forests and jungles to this day, which came from the same place Cain's wife came from I suppose... that explains everything.

I present this as the Grand Unified Theory of Intelligent Bunnyvolution. There are still some kinks to work out, but I'd say it's a pretty good work in progress, and the parts we don't fully understand are easily explained away; "God did it, I believe it, and that settles it" which I saw as a bumper sticker, and I have to say, it's a conversation starter. There are so many ways you can go with that, like "I agree" or remaining silent.
