If evolution "turned out to be true," then it must have been because it was God's choice of method, not man's.

So it would appear.

Don't forget, man is only "part and participant." As such, he can never constitute, specify, or determine the whole of which he is part and participant. You need God for that. If you care about Truth at all, that is.

Alas again - Truth-with-a-capital-T does not appear to be in the offing in this life. Until we are provided with a glimpse of it, all of our explanations are doomed to remain ad hoc explanations, subject to revision and expansion as necessary - including the story of our origins, and the story of who we think God is. Not what God is, but who we think God is, in our limited and imperfect way.
