Sir, before you make accusations

I did not accuse you of being an atheist. I said that evolution is an atheistic/materialistic ideology. Interestingly, except for the atheistic part, you have no problem with my statement. You should think about it a lot more if you are a Christian. Ideologies are substitutes for religion. The materialism I speak of is philosophical materialism, not buying big expensive cars. It denies there being a God also. Are you confortable with that? Are you confortable with being on the same side as the atheists Haeckel, Huxley, Dawkings and Gould? Don't you think that with folk like that on the side of evolution you should at least look a little more closely at what you are supporting?

I have indeed put a lot of thought into this, and I am still convinced that evolution DOES occur. This does not conflict with my theological beliefs. Sorry that your faith is too rigid to accept new ideas.
As for me not having other problems with your post, I was addressing the personal attack (and both of us know it was). There has been many many number of other posts that adress evolution, so I will let them speak for themselves.
As I have stated before, I am neither an athiest nor materialist. I do believe in God and in His Son. Yet I also believe in science. I do not see evolution disproving God. I am comfortable with my beliefs. Shouldn't that be good enough? As for others that believe in evolution, I don't care what their spirituality or other beliefs are. Are you happy with being lumped in with every other Christian? Are you happy to be lumped in Jerry Falwell or Jimmy Swaggart (didn't one of them have repeated affairs while married?) or a con-man like Jim Baker?
You accuse me of not adressing all your questions, yrt you did the same with part of mine. DO you take the Bible literaly...word for word?
