Please tell me, why do you think, that anyone who supports evolution, has to also read the Bible and interpret it exactly as you do?...you interpret in one way, I may interpret in another, someone else will find a different interpretation...how else does anyone account for all the various Christian religions?...I mean, if everyone read and interpreted the Bible in the same way, would not there be only one Christian religion?....you do not have a corner on what the truth of the Bible says, nor do I, nor does anyone else...
Its the absolute dogmatic belief of many, that one must either support evolutionn and reject God, or accept God and dismiss evolution, that is so often projected on these threads...I find that to be an absolutely narrow, closed, and wrong way of thinking...

You chose not to see God in this way...thats fine, thats what works for you...but for millions of others, we maintain our love of God, our understanding of the Bible, and we still support evolution...and no, we dont believe as many creationists would have us believe, that we are risking Hell for that belief...
You think TOE is a waste of time...so, then, dont waste your time on it...thats simple enough...but others find it a fascinating, worthwhile study...and it has nothing to do with whether one has faith in God or not...it just has to do with a difference in peoples fields of interest...
To each his own...
