Now, I do perceive various degrees of zombies (especially myself) in the following scenarios: Alzheimer’s dementia, Catatonic schizophrenia, drug induced euphoria, burn-out leaders and exhausted persons, President Carter, the Pope, and Bin Laden, guilt-infested persons, hard evolutionists, the New York shufflers, many elderly, etc., etc. Do you not see this zombie-like deadness befall us, too, or is that merely tentative?
Or should man let lose his vain religion and go back to the Adlerian womb of zombiness? To speculate that man will zombie-out as such, spiritually? Is this not the ultimate poison of the THEORY of evolution, naturalism, existentialism, etc.?
Or should not a simple man (like myself) desperately seek out redemptive anti-zombie cure(s) from something other than the ToE. i.e., a Redeemer to forgive me and raise me from the dead, now and forever? If not a redeemer proper, redemptive forces at least? Love, joy, peace, forgiveness, faith, meekness, temperance, honesty, etc.?

We are, indeed starting to act like zombies. That is also we need our religious beliefs. Evolution is not here because it has something (or even anything) to say to us. It is here because it is a fact. Not a religion.

Philip's assumption of increasing 'soullessness', I suppose.
