Do you believe in the evolution theory or the creation theory? Or both? Or neither?

I choose "I believe the creator might have used evolution," but that's not exactly accurate.
I'm agnostic on the idea of a creator. I do believe in evolution, but I don't see that these ideas have to be mutually exclusive. For example, a creator could have gotten things started and then just watched what happened from there, or could be actively guiding evolution.
As I see it, evolution in a scientific question and, while no theory can be definitively "proven," it's got enough evidence behind it to make it a good theory.
Creationism is a religious question and, as such, we're not going to have the answers in this lifetime.
That dichotomy does't bother me.

I chose the same as you Thorn, as I believe the creator did use evolution to create everything. Most people don't even think of that option, yet it IS an option.

Most people don't even think of that option, yet it IS an option. this is generally my belief, even when I was a lot younger I had a theory that God created the World in 7 days, but His days were a helluva lot longer than ours ;D I believe in Evolution too, it can't be ignored scientifically, and this is where all my quandaries start, cos I can't accept the Bible on face value, I have far too many questions, yet I would love to truly believe in a single Deity.....see, I'm gettin all cerfuddled already who knows??

I believe that there are many lesser deities, and then one Higher Deity that rules over us and all of the lessor deities. That explains a lot in my mind.
