As I believe I suggested it makes no difference to me whether God created the universe
in 24 hour increments or not. God is the Master of time. He controls it
and exists also outside of it. He could have speeded it up if He wished. It is
irrelevent to the fact that He did it. Frankly, the creation is totally beyond our
present conception and understanding.

We can only describe evolution based on our present understanding. So,
yes, even our understanding of evoltion will evolve. We only grasp
fragments of the total reality. Evolution, just like everything else in
the universe, is upheld by God's providence. As humanity evolves our
understanding and relationship with God evolves. Whether we "conceive"
Him is irrelevent to His existence.
