Re: Motives and agendas
Most evo's believe that the universe spawned from a state of nothingness. No room for a Creator. Most evo's believe that life originated at random from a few simple chemical compounds: A Creator had nothing to do with it. Most evo's believe that changes for inexplicable reasons are separate from any percieved intent. No room for a Creator here either.
Maybe I don't know what you mean by 'evo' but if it is the common definition of someone who accepts the theory of evolution then not only does it include me, it makes the above quote false.
If you are using some other defintion then I'm wrong here, but a lot of that quote is just plain incorrect.
A lot of 'evo's believe in a creator and the one's who don't believe in a creater do not go as far as to say the creator doesn't exist or isn't possible, they just leave it out of the explanation because they see no reason to include it.
In fact, one must 'create' in order to be a 'Creator,' so please explain to me where exactly a Creator fits within any evolutionary-laden theories, then explain to me how somehow couldn't come to the conclusion that isn't an atheistic doctrine at heart.
The mechanisms behind the theory of evolution could be method of creation. God could have created man by allowing him to evolve from an ape ancestor. God could have created the first spec of life through the interaction of simpler chemical compounds. I don't see how the scientific explanations make a positive claim that god was not there while failing to mention him altogether.

Science fails to recognize the single most potent element of human existence.
Letting the reigns go to the unfolding is faith, faith, faith, faith.
Science has failed our world.
Science has failed our Mother Earth.
-System of a Down, "Science"
