This is not to deny that there are versions of theism that do conflict with evolutionary biology. Young Earth Creationism is an example; it claims that God created life on earth within the past 10,000 to 50,000 years. But other types of theism are different.

I saw men go up and down, In the country and the town, With this tablet on their neck,- 'Judgement and a judge we seek.'
