I'm not a creationist, but I am religious and I believe that the universal consciousness that is Ahura Mazda is intertwined with evolution. I don't think humans are special exceptions. I think we evolved like any other animal. We have evidence of this anyway, human beings are basically Great Apes.

@basilfawlty89 You're a Zoroastrian/Parsee! Not many of those here. I had heard that some leaders are trying to modernise the faith, while others are fighting to hang on to the strictly traditional ways, but hadn't heard that version of interpretation of Ahura Mazda's creation.

@hartfire I'm a Zoroastrian convert. I'm not ethnically Parsi or Irani. But converted after discovering the Avesta and Gathas.

@basilfawlty89 Fascinating! Were you raised in one of the Biblical faiths as a child? If so, what set you seeking for an alternative? If raised without a religion, what inspired your search for a faith? What about those the Avesta and the Gathas had such strong appeal?
I lived with a Parsee for two years in London, back when I was a student. His family was very welcoming and allowed me to witness the ceremonies. I read a bit about it and found it a very ethical religion.

I don't see a reason why humans wouldn't evolve like any other creature on the planet. Even without fossil evidence, there's no real evidence to suggest humans wouldn't evolve like everything else.

Well what's your general position on evolution?
