Where did he say God did not create the Universe ex-nihilo?

Evolution in nature is not inconsistent with the notion of creation, because evolution requires the creation of beings that evolve.”

If he's suggesting evolution then he's denying ex-nihilo as the ToE denies any involvement by God....or that there is God for that matter.

I don't see it. After God created everything--- time, space, matter, and energy --- ex-nihilo, it means He brought it into being simply by his all-powerful Word. After it came into being, it of course started on the processes of change which He had omnisciently built into the very nature of material things: they interact, develop and change. (That is what TIME IS: a measure of change).

Genesis even says this:

"And the sea brought forth..."

"And the earth brought forth...."

That's pretty OK, isn't it?
