I believe that God created man - whether He did so by guiding a natural process or by the snap of a divine finger is irrelevant to me. I also believe that He created me with a brain for a reason - He expects me to use it to try to understand His creation as well as I'm able to.
In the end I think that science and religion will intersect, as they are both searching for truth. In the meantime I don't think it's useful to argue over which is "right", they're not incompatible.

They become incompatible when you put it all in al larger scope.
You seem to believe evolution has come to an halt.
But if you think that we're just another stage of an always changing environment and not an end point, you'll gather that God was not creating you, but what your descendants will be in a few billion years from now...
