As soon as we are compelled to believe in the existence of a Creator, we are confronted with the reality of some form of relationship with such Creator.
Thanks for responding. I was concerned that I had put you off of answering Dr. Adequate.
I see several problems with this explanation. One problem is that it is just as easy to believe that the Creator used evolution as his tool. Secondly, my experience is that most Christians don't become Christians for the reasons you cite anyway. The evidence for this is that most Christians are not Creationists of the type that you are. Apparently something other than the method of their creation drives their need to relate to God. For example, nobody said anything to Saul on the road to Damascus about creationism.
Finally I am skeptical that this purported motivation to perpetuate a fraud re: evolution really exists. The fact is that everybody is called into account by earthly authority. We cannot do what we want and still get along with our fellows and stay out of jail. The fact is that most Creationists, Christians, and atheists do chose to be ethical, and that those people who do not behave ethically seem to be of all persuasions.
