Yes but for evolution to work through the ages, there has to be the addition of new, more complicated information into the organism, in that example, that just isn't happening.

That was just one, easy to understand example that anybody could understand.  Over long periods of time, these mutations and natural selection add up and change the organism to the point where its not the same organism that it was 20,000 years ago.

How do you account for the fossil record and atomic decay without evolution?  Do you think God destroys Earth every 20,000 years and creates new species that resemble the ones before?

First of all, carbon dating is only accurate to what, 10,000 years? Other forms of dating assume the amount of starting nuclear material can be calculated by extrapolation, which may or may not work.

Secondly, I personally think evolution could work, I just find it unlikely, and it still fails to explain the origin of life, all there really is, is the miller experiment, which frankly is a joke, as apparently the early atmosphere was different to the experiment, so it doesn't really have much relevance any more!
