Does anyone believe that the Earth was created and that evolution is part of that creation? Intelligent design? Can one believe in both?

Yes. Evolution and creation already co-exist. It's the evolutionists and creationists who seem to be having a hard time.

One can not believe in both simply because they are 180 degrees away each other. The earth was created and is part of the creation by an intelligent designor.

Yes definitely. Evolution is an important part of God's tools of Creation. I think evolution is winning hands down over Gen 1&2 (semi)literalism of 6 day creationism. I also find dogmatic atheist refusal to consider mathematical probability and other evidences of an Ultimate Creator,The Uncaused Cause, to be similar to Creationists' fideism

Evolution and introduction can o.k. co-exist. inspite of each thing, what/who created the ever-evolving existence varieties? All this began from someplace. It had a commencing up, consequently it replaced into created. the actual question is "who or what" created this life? consequently, introduction is amazingly evidential besides. even yet it truly is achieveable, I disagree that the earth replaced into the 1st planet created. the different planets could have been created while god created "the heavens" which has diverse meanings. Heaven can mean outer area or perhaps "sky". i'm no longer asserting the earth replaced into or wasn't the 1st planet, i'm in basic terms asserting that there's no specific answer (as they warfare to modern-day); and fairly frankly, it truly does not count. there's no point out of the different planets (except they're pronounced as stars), then probable they have been made in the previous the earth replaced into executed on the fourth day. apparently, however, maximum of introduction seems to take place basically on earth and ends with the earth. there's no point out of something being created after the earth replaced into executed. the different planets had to be created the two in the previous or on a similar time using fact the earth.

They have co-existed as far as I am concerned.If you read the
book of Genesis you may find some answers to many of your questions. For example, many Christians believe God was
alone. I am a christian and this passage in no way affects my belief in God or the truth's in the Bible. Genesis 1: 26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness:
and let him have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle,and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
Hope maybe I helped ya in some way! Have a Great Week-end!Oh yeah that was KJV of the Bible, How long is a day to GOD ? Do I think God looks like an ape or chimp? NOT

Sure. You must understand that the creationists are a bit confused. The garden of eden is our childhood. We are supposed to grow up and leave the paradise of ignorance, not stay in it. The fruit of the tree of knowledge of right and wrong must be eaten in order to mature into adults. Why would god want us to remain children? God is the primeval atom of which all energy and matter are created.
Science and Psychology have proven creation. It's just not the fairy tale version.

I believe in evolution, but I also think the Gods and Goddesses set that evolution in motion. I feel that this is why their energy can be felt in everything. It was their energy that caused evolution. Great Question.

yes since you cant really compare the two.
evolution has nothing to do with how the earth was created.. it is not part of the big bang theory.. abiogensis is the theory that would make you compare to creation
evolution is simply how everything evolves afterwards

Sure, not everything in this world is black and white. Mind you, keep in mind that evolution takes MILLIONS of years and with that in the forefront.... it probably took God no time to create what we have here; since time is only linear on Earth due to the days and nights (provided by the sun) a day to God would have been millions of years of our little Earth

Evolution is not incompatible with deity. Some forms of Creationism are not only incompatible with evolution, but reality itself.
