1.) M (matter) + T (time) + E (energy) = ABIOGENESIS (the development of living organisms from nonliving matter)
Only the most rabid, frenzied, fevered intellect would wonder if this is false. Anyone who doubts the extrapolations and inferred conclusions of the intellectual giants of science is to be ridiculed as a barefoot bumpkin. To resist the smooth reasoning and self congratulatory smugness of the intelligentsia is a fools errand. The editors of all the important journals can safely dismiss your rambling as loony speculations reminiscent of pre-Darwin churchmen. To persist in a belief in a Creator, Intelligent Designer (Architect of the Universe), Father in Heaven is to be dismissed as someone worthy of consideration. Anyone who holds such a backwards opinion should not be considered for any position in the highly praised, often quoted, obviously correct, speculative areas that contribute to the education of the unwashed masses in the area of biology.

There are plenty of Biologists who believe in a creator, an architect of the universe, and/or an intelligent designer. They just won't willfully blind themselves to the mechanism whereby genetic diversity is generated (mutation) and how genetic similarity is conserved or beneficial traits are more likely to be passed on(selection).
Saying that the two are incompatible is the primary intellectual fallacy of Creationists.
