But you still have not answered the question of HOW creation was carried out, and no doubt, you will not be able to, because I just dont find it in the Bible...

There are way too many Biblical scholars, people with a firm belief in God and in Christ, who do not look at the time schedule of 6 days as being what you prefer to describe them as being...you chose to believe in 6 24 hr days of creation...and many Biblical scholars completely disagree with you on this...so you may be right, and then again, you may be completely wrong...

And then there is the whole notion of how is time, in relation to God...how does God view time...that particular notion has been discussed quite a bit, and it may or may not line up with this 6 24 hr days of creation...

I dont see it as being impossible that God created everything in 6 24 hr days...I see it, that with God, anything and everything is completely possible...but what is possible, may indeed not be, the way that it was...

Millions of Christians, do support evolution, and do consider themselves Christians, having a personal relationship with Christ...

Supporting evolution, in my opinion, does not negate a relationship with Jesus Christ, tho some would have it be that way...

But denying the evidence of intelligent design in creation negates the work of the Christ you say you believe in.

For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. (Colossians 1:16-17 KJV)

Jesus was active in the creation, not passive. By him all things consist. If we say his creation was accomplished by sitting idly by while the slime worked it's magic to create all the things mentioned in that verse, do you not think that denigrates his work? Especially if he did it as he claimed in Exodus 20?

Man is not the product of evolution. Man is a special creation of God. We were created in the image and likeness of God. We are not the product of chance, but of purpose.
