You are free to believe in evolution, and god. Unfortunately there are extremely right wing Christians that dont believe that is possible.

It doesn't got that way with creationists. Creationism isn't a science and it doesn't belong in schools not devoted to teaching the specifics of christian theology.

I felt the need to reply to this part in particular. How many times and how many amazing laws must we uncover before we have enough proof that something beyond our comprehension must have come up with all of these laws. How arrogant are we as a species to think that there is nothing we can't comprehend. Nothing is too complex that we can't understand it. Don't get me wrong, I fully support constantly looking for explanations for the world in which we live but I've come to accept that we'll never fully understand it all.

That along with what I see as overwhelming evidence for there being some greater being that put all of this together in perfect harmony leads me to believe in a creator. If I'm intellectually honest, I find that less of a stretch than some of the explanations currently found in science textbooks for the origin of life.
