I see that a lot of people are assuming that science and religion can't overlap. The origin theory that I believe in is called Directed Evolution. According to this, God created the earth with a purpose, subtly directed the creation of life, and intervened when necessary.

With this theory, science and religion can coexist.

this is creationism in a more modern dress - this basically says that our "laws of nature" can be altered by god at any moment rendering them useless as tools to reconstruct how the world was in the past and predict/calculate how it will be in the future; every single of our findings and calculations would need to end with "... if god doesn't/didn't change any of our laws of nature during that time"

so, yea,  this is really the opposite of science
