Could evolution actually be a spiritual Issue?

It is not a claim of evolutionary theory that there is a plan, so no-one is reasoning that there is a plan without a planner. No. Paintings and bridges do not reproduce with random variations, and are not subject to natural selection, in case you'd never noticed. That is a massive difference. You said it, not me. You seem to have no problem with the idea of complexity existing without a creator....unless your creator is non-complex, of course. No. If one was to be honest with oneself, one would base one's views of the universe on the available evidence. I'd wait for evidence of this thing called God before I considered its relationship with evil. The reason that I think the theory of evolution is a strong theory is because of the evidence for it. You describe that evidence as flimsy on your website, and that's a symptom of either being dishonest with yourself, or of ignorance. If you'd typed "disprove" instead of "prove" in that sentence, you might have made the only good point in your post.If humans have non-material souls, I don't think anyone would argue that they are the product of mutation and natural selection. If having descended from other animals worries you, think of evolution as being about your body, not the soul that you presumably believe in.Evolutionary theory isn't incompatible with certain forms of theism. It only clashes with creation mythologies that describe fictional universes (and there are many of these from many cultures), because science provides evidence based descriptions of the real universe, whether that reality was created by a God or not.
