Evolution doesn't preclude the idea of God. It makes conclusions about biological processes based on observable evidence.

And it makes claims about those processes that preclude the possibility of a designer. Random selection is an atheist doctrine.

If so, since it exists only in your mind, you must be an atheist

Funny handle for an atheist, though.

God is incapable of setting up initial conditions such that they evolve without further interference? Isn't He supposed to be omnipotent?

Exactly in the same way that modern physics - by precluding the explanation that angels push the planets around - is an atheist doctrine.
