For a number of years I have been struggling with my faith and the apparent spiritual obligation to square it with Creationism. I suppose that over time I have gently rejected the 6 Day approach in favour of a Theistic Evolution, but more recently I have become interested in Panentheism (not to be confused with Pantheism) which states God's immanence as well as his separation from the Universe - if I've understood it correctly. This would allow for Evolution that would be Godly without have the necessity for God to have guided it at specific points throughout time.
Panentheism is still something that intrigues me, but it's something that I need to research more. So long as it allows the inclusion of Universalism I don't care!
