Hello, Im back. And now I am a theistic evolucionist (which means I could give credit to evolution but can change my mind). This conversion happened when I understood Evolution and Creation arent inconsistent although they are different. Evolution talks about deterministic processes that happens on a long time period without the imediate interference of God. Creation is restricted to the six days and refers to an interaction of God that originates the deterministic information that gives rise to the evolucionary process.
Let me give you an example. Suppose you are on a boat in the middle of the sea and there is 6 bombs on the shore with different impacts. You have on your hand a device that detonate the bombs. You detonate the first one, then one minute later the second, then one minute later the third,etc... All with the same time interval. However, depending on the speed some waves could reach you 50 min later, others 1h, others 30 min. It could even happen that later originated waves reaches first (interacting with others on their way).
Creation is like the detonation of the bombs and Evolution like the propagation of the waves.
