Read the Word? You mean that interpretation/rewrite among the many that was dictated by an English king?
Believe in God and the lessons of the bible, not in the book itself. The bible has been changed by the hand of man for centuries and before that by interpretation of the oral tradition.
God can do anything, even create an evolutionary universe and then let it go and develop for billions of years.
Is Deism part of the evolutionary package deal? Is this something we must believe as well?
No, it hasn't. The Dead Sea Scrolls attest to that.
The Bible has been faithfully copied for centuries and the different translators only have so many texts to work from.
But if you throw out veracity of the Bible, you might as well throw out any belief in God because the concept that most share of the Judeo-Christian God originates from the Bible. Our concept of God comes from that Bible you are discounting.
