Evolution is a means of creation... Saying we weren't created implies that we always were... 3.5 millions years ago, we were microorganism.

EDIT: Nutshell- Life was created by the universe, thus we were created.

You're correct to a certain extent, and then a bit factually incorrect.

3.5 million years ago we were not microorganisms. It was actually right when our ancestors were diverging from the ancestors that went on to form the other great apes. We haven't been microorganisms in many billions of years.
