4. 69% of respondents say no, not exclusive.

Hmm...? Perhaps they are evolutionary creationists. I guess it's all in the details. :shrug:

2. Yes and no

My Church of Christ dad believes in creationism/big bang/evolution/multiverse.

Here is it goes: God created the universe through the big bang but laid out as Bible says. God molded human evolution through billions of years to make Eden and humans. We fell and rest is history. After Jesus died, God created another universe to have life and do the project over again hence no miracles anymore.

Don't ask me how he can up with it but he is kosher with the Bible as being literal in some cases and science.

3. I'm a theistic evolutionist, so the answer for me is no.

7. The Wikipedia seems to agree with you.

Well, something gets clarified everyday. It's a good thing I'm not all set in my views.

5. So God both created the laws of thermodynamics and broke them at the same

time?

That's quite a deity.

OK, I think I understand - evolution and a belief in Creationism aren't mutually exclusive. Just very hard to explain as we were supposed to get more intelligent as we evolved.
