I know that my views on this subject will probably make people laugh. I believe in the theory of evolution, but I think we had help. I think that at some point in history this planet was visited by other beings and they added DNA to our gene pool. Hence the missing link. Of course they can't find any sign of evolution between walking on all fours(ape like) and walking upright. That change happened almost instantly because of the foriegn DNA that was introduced. And I also believe in a higher power (no,Not aliens) Of course an all powerful being would'nt be restricted to just the beings on this planet, He (or she) would have dominion over all. All the suns and all of the planets and all of the beings on those planets, not just in our universe but everywhere. (to deny the idea of life on other planets is just basic human arragance)
So with that being said I do believe that god had a hand in creating us but he did it through the actions of others.
