I want to know about YOUR model. I have done a lot of reading and I can't find out about this aspect specifically.
Did it ever occur to you that perhaps, just maybe, six months of casual self-study (of mainly Creationist sources, I'll wager) of a subject might not be enough for you to be able to judge if an entire field "understands" something as large and broad as the GC??
Perhaps it is you who doesn't understand.
I will refer you to my signature quote:

close our minds to the knowledge painstakingly accumulated by hundreds of thousands
of scientists over long centuries is to deliberately decide to be ignorant and narrow-
minded."
