I wouldn't want #2 if its without evolution. I would find it boring if we were all 'created' so easily and instantly. If there is a God I'd rather he used evolution anyway. It would be better that he could do it without the suffering somehow (don't ask me how, he's God he should know).
I find it boring and pathetic if he just goes "alakazam!" and we're all here. Thats pretty damn boring. I think evolution is much more inspiring. And partly BECAUSE its not perfect and so easy to do. Its the process that is fascinating. There's nothing fascinating about the process of "alakazam", instant creation etc. If it could be called a process at all - as far as I'm concerned.
I think it would be best if there was evolution and a loving God somehow WITHOUT all the suffering in evolution. Nevertheless evolution is still inspiring. Its more interesting and inquisitive. Unlike instant 'alakazam' like creation.
That is, if I have understood you correctly?
