Or the world and life evolved through natural processes set in motion by the Creator.
In which case God is irrelevant to the evolution of life and whatever happens in the world. Which is the same as no God at all.
If the world and life on this earth are God's creation, and evolution was a very clever way that God used to achieve His creative objectives, that hardly makes Him “irrelevant to the evolution of life and whatever happens in the world”. And it most certainly is not “the same as no God at all”.

Every day on this side of the ground is a win.
