"I have no problem with the idea that God created the universe and evolution is part of that plan. "

By definition, "God" and "plan" are incompatible with evolution.

Why? Because mutations appear to us as being random? Many things in nature appear to us as random - that doesn’t mean that they are not part of God’s plan.

The power of God doesn’t stop at the casino door, so why would it stop at DNA mutation?

Prov 16:33 The dice are cast into the lap, but every result is from the Lord.

Why? Aren't we men; don't we define the words?n We can treat the terms as we wish.

Just a few years back I began referring to Democrats as "fascist pigs". Currently the popular press has caught up with me and it's a common thing to see Democrats described as fascistic people.

But, of course, they are still fascist pigs.

I don't see it that way. Perhaps you think that you know what God's plan is and how it will work out in all respects, but I don't pretend to. Oh, the big picture, sure. The battle has already been won. But the technical details, from quantum physics to the size of the universe...IMHO those are things that we mere mortals should be amazed by and eager to learn of his wonders. Could evolution be part of that? I think so, but not the way Darwinists are determined to "prove". Kind of like the idea that the Earth need not be the center of the universe in order to prove there is a God and he sent his only Son to die for our sins.
