As a Deist I readily accept evolution as the best explanation for what happened. I don't think god is some magic man in the sky, but more akin to a scientist himself. Of course I also readily accept that this god is not omniscient, omnipresent, and omnipotent.
Okay not omni-anything. But what about the maker of everything? Is that negotiable? How about a deity that didn't create anything except the conscious experience that you're having right now? One that only has the power to: afflict you with Freudian slips from time to time; or give you bursts of insight and inspiration; or perhaps throw you into a deep dark depression. Would you still call yourself a Deist if this was all the deity there was?
