Just as when you added the last part (above) to my post, it is your view of the theory which gives you problems, not the theory itself.

You are starting with the assumption that there is a God, that his is a creator, that he created, etc., etc. Fine. But that's just your belief. It isn't a fact; it isn't based on any data. It's just your belief. But when you start with that bias, you can't rightly complain when science looks at nature without that bias. The problem with the absence of the bias is you bringing it to the table in the first place.

You can't assume a premise for which there is no evidence, and complain when someone doesn't agree to that assumption. And that's what you're doing here.
