Theistic Evolutionism???
Creation Science
Randy cited a page from this site here.
This is a site I have never encountered before, and I have yet to explore other than a light skimming of the Randy cite. It sure looks to have a lot to offer.
From the home page:
Answers In Creation
Bringing the Bible and Science Together Without Conflict
Welcome to Answers in Creation, a creation science ministry believing in an inerrant Word of God and a literal interpretation of Genesis. We also believe the earth is billions of years old. We apply logic and common sense to creation science, and bring conservative Christianity and Old Earth Creationism together, without conflict.
It will be interesting to see how they try to achieve the above. It would seem to require some variety of theistic evolutionism.

Bumpity-Bump
I just managed to bumble onto this (somewhat) old topic I started. Seems like years ago, but it was only 6 months ago. This time I actually got a few of their articles read.
Repeating the link from message 1:
Creation Science
Note that they offer "printer friendly" PDF versions of their articles. The PDF's are also much more (IMO) reader friendly. The drawback is that the links aren't there or don't work in the PDF's, but for them you can go back to the HTML version.

Literal Bible/Genesis, Yom/Day considerations
They seem to give lip service to accepting Biblical literalism and absolute accuracy, while at the same time (correctly IMO) asserting that such things as the age of the Earth are not really important in the big picture of "the true fundimentals" of Christianity.
At their "Old-Earth Belief" page
http://www.answersincreation.org/old.htm
http://www.answersincreation.org/print/old.pdf (both better printer and reader friendly)
they give there arguments for flexibility in what the length of Yom is.
