As something of a casual observer in these discussions with little time to put any real depth to my replies, I think what the other poster here is saying, Bex, is exactly what you've said above. The only difference he/she's saying is that evolution was the mechanism by which G-d chose to bring forth life (correct me if I'm wrong).

Over the years I've come to believe the same thing you're saying here, Bex: intelligence requires an intelligent designer. The only real matter in question here is the method with which G-d might have done this. In any which way the evidence points it still leads to G-d's work as the final say-so, evolution, big bang theory, Adam and Eve, or not. For me, the existence of the universe is sufficient proof for His existence. The rest is up for grabs (and for scientific venture).

Shalom!
