At one time your church leaders were rather touchy on that issue. Nothing says they won't be again someday.
Be a shame for your efforts here to result in some unpleasantries in a potential 'back to basics' revival in your denomination.
I don't think details of HOW God did it is a theological matter. Only that we believe He was behind creation.
I guess I just have a hard time taking it seriously when you say things like that, and fail to acknowledge all of the horrible implications of the aforementioned 'perfect design' that went horribly wrong in more ways than we can count. I would understand if you believed in a creator/designer god out of fear but absolutely cannot understand that you could possibly love or worship it.
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?

There is no better way to convey the least amount of information in the greatest amount of words than to try explaining your religious views.
