Any theory about the origin of life is as valid as any other.

The problem is that parts of it are facts, such as microevolution. We can observe it, there is no way to question it.
Other parts are just pure speculation- cosmic evolution and macroevolution for example.
I voted It's a theory that's no more valid than intelligent design, though "It's only a theory, but the best one we have" would be a proper response as well if you look at the whole picture.

I voted for 2, but I think my opinion lies somewhere between 2 and 3.
I am no expert in neither life science nor Biblical studies, but I am OK believing that evolution exists under the power of God, if that makes any sense at all.

Makes sense to me. I also believe that God's fingerprints are upon whatever evolution does(has) occur(ed).
As Stefan stated, evolution exists at some level. But it doesn't exist at the level which some would attempt to validate.

There are so many examples of evolution it's impossible for me to deny it, but there are still so many things we don't know about it that you can't literally prove it beyond a shadow of a doubt.
Now if after I die I wind up outside a pearly gate with someone asking me this question you better believe I'm going to change my vote.
I went with #1 because of the research that I have done. Science has been my obsession since I was about 10. However, I went into business so I could make some money. I still spend a lot of time reading about this stuff. If you spend enough time researching independent species, I just don’t see how someone can argue against evolution.
Having said that, I’m not religious, but I do believe that there must be some force out there that started all of this.

You hit the nail on the head for me. The human evolution class that Krang and I took was the most fascinating science class I've ever taken. It is because of this class I couldn't go with the other choices, the evidence showing the process of evolution was too great.
