For me, I think I would tend to think of God being able to do both of those at the same time.
To me, I think the science minister answered the way he needed to (well, perhaps, he could have articulated it better). Giving his real position on the issue may only have wasted everyone's time.
I would call myself a creationist, but certianly not a "literal creationist." I don't think Religion should try to answer the question of "how?" - at least from a purely religious standpoint. let science do that. I would be glad if religion stuck to answering "why?" - a question that science ultimately cannot answer.
