To try to fit God the creator into the TOE, one has to deny the very premise of the TOE.

Fine by me. If the "very premise" of evolution is that there is no God, and everything is random, I have no problem abandoning that. This doesn't mean we throw out the baby with the bathwater.

All scriptures of the world that I am familiar with state that God created all life forms at the very beginning of creation. He didn't evolve them.

What is the difference? God created you, too, from before the beginning of time, and yet you didn't come into existence until a long chain of humans before you were born and then mated.

People want to fit the concept of God the creator into the TOE because they don't want to be labeled as knuckle dragging fanatics by the educated elites.

Are you allowed to use psychoanalysis? There's no mention of that in the Bible?

First of all, I don't use the Bible as my only source of knowledge about God, His purposes, and so on.

Second, I am not the physical body, so "my" existence did not start with the conception of the body.

Regarding psychoanalysis, it's another speculative method to try to understand consciousness. Partly right and a great deal wrong, like all efforts based on speculation.
