I don't doubt for a second that God left out many details, but to think natural selection had anything to do with creation is atheism...period.

Around 1.3 billion of the world's Christians disagree with you, of course. I guess the Pope is an "atheist" in your book.

Nonsense! There are 1.3 million Christians, and polls have always shown the majority believe in Creationism. Aditionally, I would suggest you read again what the Pope has to say about evolution.

I am speaking of the official positions of both the Catholic and the Orthodox Churches, which comprise about 1.3 billion of the world's 2 billion Christians. I am sure there are Protestant denominations that accept the TOE, too. Creationism is a fringe movement among Christians.

Now, the Muslim world is completely behind Creationism...

Aditionally, I would suggest you read again what the Pope has to say about evolution.

The Vatican accepts theistic evolution whereby evolution is the mechanism used by God to guide the development of life.
