Darwinism doesn't say this.
It doesn't literally say it, no. It implies it logically.
I can as easily concieve a cruel god as I can conceive a good god. Why can't you?
I've been trying to figure that out. I think there's something self-contradictory about the phrase "cruel God." When someone says, "God is cruel," it really means that they don't believe in God.
Despite my demonstrating to you the fundamental difference in terminology you are using. You refer to COMMON ANCESTRY, not ToE. ToE is an explanatory framework for describing population change. Common ancestry says that all organisms share a common ancestor.
In that case, I'm throwing in common ancestry. That's what I mean.
