Now i want to pose a questions that, theoretically, the ToE should be able to answer.
Which it does elegantly, yet creationism explains nothing. When one looks at the enormous biological evidence for evolution and the "mistakes" that one must accept if they have convinced themselves of design (for example, cave fish and salamanders with sightless eyes) then the only creationist explanation for what we see in biology is that God is a) a deceiver who plants evidence of the truth of evolution and b) extremely stupid.
I dont really have a premis for this discussion except to say that denying the existence of a Creator does not still man’s quest for a meaning to life.
If my life was meaningless, I would probably start believing in a creator and try to convince myself that He/She/It loves me.
Lucky for me I'm an atheist and my life is filled with meaning. I have hopes and dreams, I have a family and friends that love me, I have goals and desires, I have an insatiable lust for life and all its experiences, and a million more things makes life meaningful for me.
This brings us back to my earlier question, Why does the human brain have such a vast intellect? What purpose does it serve in evolutionary terms.
Isn't the benefits of intelligence self-evident? This is like asking why lions have strong muscles or why whales have sharp teeth.
