I've said for a while that I believe in evolution, and that doing so has nothing to do with believing or not believing in God, which I do.
Even if we can prove- and I mean absolutely prove, down to the very first instance of the existence of EVERYTHING, that there is a scientific step-through the way right up to the very words i'm typing right now, that still does not disprove to me, or change my faith, that God created everything.
As I believe in God, I believe that He is omnipotent and omniscient, and that more than allows for faith to exist, based on the ideal that WHATEVER actually spawned everything that has ever existed, it was all started by Him.
My example is usually something like having a kid. We have the ability to reproduce- does that mean we will a child into existence? No. We fertilize an egg through sex or other insemination, and then we sit back and wait for the growing process to complete. "Creating" a child does not make us Gods, nor does proof of the steps of creation of the child, all the way back to the first components, mean that we didn't make it happen ourselves.
