Leaving aside the term "God" momentarily, I don't know how one looks at our universe, or simply our own solar system, with all its precision, and can make a compelling argument that everything as we know it happened by random acts of chance.

Do you think that evolution alone provides a more "believable" theory? Please.

There is plenty of evidence to support a role for both evolution and intelligent design. It is the evolutionary purists whose theories are stretched beyond believability.

Evolutionary theory does not try to explain the universe nor does the evolutionary theory try to explain the existence of species through random acts of chance.

Creationists (correct me if I am wrong) believe in the free will of man. How is it such a stretch to believe that evolution was left to the 'free will' of chemistry? God may have provided the chemistry and let evolution take its course much as Creationists say we are born and our lives are let to take their course.

Back to the beginning?

The evolutionary purists only try to give reason to the world. As new facts are introduced, theories are modified. Evolutionary purists never stretch the believabiltiy.

Of course there are disagreements and egos. They are human, after all.
