Not all Christians dismiss evolution and science as atheism and Marxism. They also know that there is no telling on HOW God made His Creation, nor the efforts He put into motion.

The Protestant view is He snapped his fingers, and it was so. But even saying, "Let there be light" is the closest explanation for the Big Bang than any scientist can describe.

So therefore, my FRiend, I will you with some scripture, where the Lord God Himself describes not the snap, but the process of some of His Creation. Note that He describes the Creation of the Earth as a process that a stone mason would use, because at that time of writing, that is what people would understand then. But nowadays, no one believes the Earth actually has a corner stone, but that doesn't mean they've rejected God or the Bible. The Lord God is using the words and understanding of His people of their time, not His. The greater understanding of this is that God did indeed work his creation into being. From the Book Job, Chapter 38:

1 Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said,
2 Who is this that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge?
3 Gird up now thy loins like a man; for I will demand of thee, and answer thou me.
4 Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding.
5 Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it?
6 Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof;
7 When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?
8 Or who shut up the sea with doors, when it brake forth, as if it had issued out of the womb?
9 When I made the cloud the garment thereof, and thick darkness a swaddlingband for it,
10 And brake up for it my decreed place, and set bars and doors,
11 And said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but no further: and here shall thy proud waves be stayed?
12 Hast thou commanded the morning since thy days; and caused the dayspring to know his place;
13 That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it?
14 It is turned as clay to the seal; and they stand as a garment.
15 And from the wicked their light is withholden, and the high arm shall be broken.
16 Hast thou entered into the springs of the sea? or hast thou walked in the search of the depth?
17 Have the gates of death been opened unto thee? or hast thou seen the doors of the shadow of death?
18 Hast thou perceived the breadth of the earth? declare if thou knowest it all.
19 Where is the way where light dwelleth? and as for darkness, where is the place thereof,
20 That thou shouldest take it to the bound thereof, and that thou shouldest know the paths to the house thereof?
