As a Christian, I find evolution to be a possibility. Possibly the tool God uses to achieve his ends.

Theism is entirely compatible with the theory of evolution.

Evolution explains the start of the universe as being a "big bang"... out of nothingness matter was... created? Formed into existence... there ya go, that’s what they say.
This is in total contradiction to every major monotheistic religion on this planet. Every one of them has a god of some sort creating the universe (hence, that makes them god by definition)
So no, evolution is not compatible.

Microevolution, is what you are referring to as the "tool God uses to achieve his ends", where as the evolution that the others on this thread are advocating is macroevolution which encompasses the big bang theory and what not. An argument could be made for micro and creationism going hand in hand, but not macro. Not the big bang.

I agree completely with your post #363..you have summed up, very briefly, very correctly, exactly how I, and certainly millions of others view this subject...
