Hello

I am completely new to this. I happened to notice that most people in
this group are either creationists or sceptics about fully naturalistic
evolution. I would love to know why.

It seems to me that there is no inconsistency whatsoever between theism
and evolution. G. K. Chesterton said it best when he said that a
creationist believes that God created mankind, but he doesn't have to
specify how long it took God to do this, nor exactly which mechanism was
employed. Am I missing something about the relationship between these
two theories - that is, theism and evolution - which everyone else has
grasped?

Cheers
