The stance that god drives evolution is known as 'theistic evolutionism' and many people hold to that belief - it is not something the few of you have just come up with. The theory of evolution does not need a theistic slant for support , but people who try to reconcile science with religion often do it that way. One problem is that in evolution , humans are not the ultimate product and in a few billion years, a more advanced species may emerge. Why do humans have souls but not that species? What about homo erectus or Australopithecus - do they have a soul? Are they going to hell? Evolution can be harmonized with the concept of a generic god (Thor , others) but it is difficult to reconcile with the concepts of the bible, especially Genesis which exhibits no trace of scientific understanding .
The amount of bullshit you have to weave around Christianity to support its 'truth' ought to have you questioning it.
