I borrowed this from a new book by Micheal Shermer publisher of Skeptic Magazine "Why Darwin Matters: The Case Against Intelligent Design". Used this on a lot of questions because it makes sense to me.
If one is a theist, it should not matter when God made the universe—10,000 years ago or 10,000,000,000 years ago. The difference of six zeros is meaningless to an omniscient and omnipotent being, and the glory of divine creation cries out for praise regardless of when it happened. Likewise, it should not matter how God created life—whether it was through a miraculous spoken word or through the natural forces of the universe that He created. The grandeur of God’s works command awe regardless of what processes He used.
As for meanings and morals, it is here where our humanity arises from our biology. We evolved as a social primate species with the tendency of being cooperative and altruistic within our own groups, but competitive and bellicose between groups. The purpose of civilization is to help us rise above our hearts of darkness and to accentuate the better angels of our nature.
Believers should embrace science, especially evolutionary theory, for what it has done to reveal the magnificence of the divinity in a depth never dreamed by our ancient ancestors. We have learned a lot in 4,000 years, and that knowledge should never be dreaded or denied. Instead, science should be welcomed by all who cherish human understanding and wisdom.

Nope. That's the view that evolution and creationism are compatible. Some religious people think that science has a place in religion because evolution merely supports creationism. God created the earth and the Bible never specifies how. The seven days are really just metaphors and took millions of years.
Remember that there are still people that believe one or the other.

The idea that there was a big bang and suddenly this whole universe popped into being proves that God created the world? What kind of drugs are you taking?

No. It says there is no need of a God, that God does not exist. That all is just a matter of chance happenings rather than an intelligent being that made it all. It takes a lot more faith to believe in evolution than to believe that God is the One that made it all.

No as creationism want to believe a large leap from on thing to another occured. Evolutionist believe a slow gradual change over time.

Not prove, exactly.
Evolution is God's way of creating the universe. Science is just now discovering how God set things up. In the end, the terms "nature" and "God" will converge into the same thing.
Cheers.

I think they are compatible. But the morons that believe Genesis word for word would disagree.

If you want it to. Creationism is about imagining things, so if you pretend that evolution proves creationism, then it does.
