(I maintain my position that there is no inconsistency between a religious and scientific explanation. Once you stop seeing them as mutually exclusive opposing sides, you step back and go, "Okay, yeah, it could work that way too." The Big Bang and Evolution are just as miraculous as a carpenter's son walking on water.)

That's pretty much my position too.

It might be coincidence, but I think if you showed a primitive person a movie of the creation of the universe and the origins of life and then asked them to tell the tale to others, I think you'd get pretty much the first few paragraphs of Genesis.
