All true, and yet I honestly believe that at the heart of evolution v. intelligent design is whether God created the universe.

No. “Darwinian” evolutionary theory is a model describing the process of speciation and adaptation by means of natural selection. It says NOTHING regarding the origin of the universe, which is an utterly unrelated issue. I again quote Darwin:

“There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been originally breathed into a few forms or into one; and that, whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved.”
