How about taking a very risky step and reading “A case for a Creator” and “A case for Christ” by Lee Strobel and then getting back to me.

Although I stopped collecting about a decade ago, I have a couple hundred antievolution volumes in my library, and have read all or portions of most of them. I also used to attend local meetings of an antievolution group, and twice attended national creationism conventions. I'm probably more familiar with antievolution literature than your average antievolutionist.

I don't have Strobel's book, but from the summary here it doesn't look like there is any ground covered that I am completely unfamiliar with.

Actually, I was not talking so much about anti-evolution as about opening oneself to God. I, personally, grew up in a communist country, was indoctrinated in marxist-leninist ideology, including and especially evolution, because my PhD work was in the field of biological sciences, but at the end, if you are really open to exploring the possibilities, the evolutionary theory doesn’t quite cut it. I realize, that to atheists, questioning evolution seems like attacking their religion, but so be it.
The reason I usually don’t post on these threads is that they turn very ugly real fast, and generally it’s not the believers in creation and ID that start it.
I appreciate you staying polite and will be praying for you.
