And I will believe my God, and My Catholicosm the way its handed to me

I suppose that word in bold is Catholicism and is Roman rite? That pretty much explains the whole mess with you. Glad I'm Christian instead. Wish you were too.

An evolution by your definition excludes GOD

It excludes him in things he claims direct involvement in, calls him a liar as a result both directly and indirectly which is blasphemy, etc. Something we Christians take rather better care about. Evolution says that the world started with fire, God says it started with Water. Evolution says no Global flood, God says he destroyed the earth with one in judgement of mankind. On and on we can go. Evolution contradicts God and the Bible at every turn and outright. So, yeah, we Christians have a bit of a problem with it where you Catholics might not. Your religion is one of Philosophy that borrows from Christianity. Christianity, however, doesn't follow philosophy, but instead follows Christ - thus the dead giveaway in the term "Christian".

Luke 16:13 No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other..

The verse finishes by saying axiomatically that one cannot serve God and money as masters. If one cannot serve two masters, which is the point of the statement, and two masters are God and Money, one cannot serve God and Money. Simple logic. One can also not serve God and philosophy. See how that works? You exemplify the axiomatic truth of that scripture - dispising the scripture and holding to the philosophy of evolution. Congrats. You've just proven God right.

I feel like I'm in the middle of the Dave Barry movie, "Big Trouble".

Caller: I'm a Gator and I'm calling.
Radio host: OK, what are you calling about?
Caller: You said Gator (fans) didn't have the guts to call, but I'm a Gator, and I'm calling.
Radio host: OK, You're on the air. What are you calling about?
Caller: I'm just calling to say I'm a Gator, and I'm calling. You said we didn't have the guts to call, but here I am.

Repeat 12 times...

Not that it matters but Dave Barry is from Miami. My mother, brother, son and daughter are Gators.

And we're calling.

First off let me apoligize for my actions last night, my carbamazepine was wearing off and it wasnt time to take it again and therefore, I get a little grumpy and muddy headed.

Evolution says that the world started with fire>>

Evolution says no such thing.

Evolution says no Global flood>>

Evolution once again does not make such a claim. You are confusing geology and other such fields with evolution.

Evolution in fact doesnt delve into anything about how this world was created or any earth altering events like the great flood.

If you remember what that article about catholicism and darwinism says is they dont have any arguments with the claim that species and organisms evolve. Thats evident in the fact that humans are taller than they have ever been, on average, microbes and bacteria have developed resistance to drugs etc.

The core argument against Darwinism, and the evolution is that certain aspects of it are unexplainable. Such as species making evolutionary jumps, from ape to man for example.

Like I said ID steps into say, the only p[ossible answer until proven otherwise is that an intelligence did all that.
