Someone help me out here. Which way did you come in? (bada bump!)

Are Darwinism and Creationism mutually exclusive?

"Creationism" as defined on these threads usually means literal interpretation of Genesis: 7 days means 168 hours as we know them now (a handful accept some vagueness about the "light" thing). Adam and Eve appeared {poof} fully formed with no background (nor clothes).

From that perspective, they are not only mutually exclusive, but TToE is Heresy.

Why couldn't Darwinism be God's mechanism?

Many of us Christians who understand TToE believe that TToE (the CR/IDers tend to substitute the term "Darwinism" for "Evolution" and TTYTT, it doesn't have a lot of meaning) is exactly that: a part of God's plan (look back a few posts for my rather elaborate description of the whole debate).

I admit that I have not been following the discussion on these boards, and I appreciate your response .... but

TToE = The Theory of Evolution?
CR/IDers = ?
TTYTT = ?

I'm just curious, and a bit lazy (as I do not feature reading through the entire thread), ... do Creationists deny Darwinism?
