How do Christians respond to evolution?

[NLSoldier]

I'm guessing this has been discussed on this forum in some other threads, but I dont get in here often enough to read every single one. So if there is a link that would help me that would be awesome.

I realize that Christians get around the incosistencies of evolution vs the creation stories by saying that genesis isnt meant to be taken literally, etc. But how do they get around the conflict between the randomness of evolution vs the intelligent design suggested by the bible?

Is there even an answer or do they just kind of ignore it? Do they simply reject the theory of evolution? What is the vaticans official position?

Googling 'theistic evolution', I get these:

Hope they help. I have no idea on the vatican.

This is why I have qualms with "following the religion of your father".

You should say the "randomness preached by evolutionists", since they can't show that chance exists. There's no need to "get around" it since its existence can't be proved.

How do evolutionists get around the meaninglessness of the universe and the non-existence of morality if chance IS ultimate?

Micro evolution which is changes within a species is provable. Macro evolution, which is changes from one species to another: eg: a fish turning into a bird, has no proof.

Hasn't DNA already proven that mankind comes from an original stock of 2 people (Adam and Eve)?
