One man's 'cop out' is another man's opinion.

"There's a difference between believing in God and accepting evolution and believing in God thinking that he set evolution up."

No... there is little difference. Logically, *if* one believes in a god at all, that supposed entity 'might' have cognition and control over how reality is organized...in fact, why believe in a god if you don't allow 'it' some properties? *I* don't presume such ideas, just as YOU don't, but we are positing a belief. You are trying to insert YOUR conclusion into a syllogism which you did not construct.
