We may want to start another thread about all this, but I just wanted to share this with you. I struggled for quite a time with my faith and creation vs. evolution, and a biologist said something to me that really made sense.
"If you believe that God is all powerful, and has created everything, why can't you believe that God could create the process of evolution?"
I have managed to find some balance between the two with that statement. I am very much into primatology and physical anthropology, and I can't deny the fossil record and the comparative taxonomy, but I can't deny my faith either. It seems to have worked for me.
(As an aside, I freaking HATE IT when people make the "I didn't come from monkeys" statement. If they understood evolution they wouldn't say that.)

I actually did mention Theistic Evolution, which is what you're talking about. I left it open since, as I said I can't prove anything, so until the evidence convinces me...
I do understand what you're saying though!
