From a political point of view--from a strategic point of view--I would think you would want to downplay the implications of evolution.
That is a general problem in politics - A lot of people don't want to or can't handle hearing the raw truth. To be running for a political office, and to be up front with an accurate appraisal of the problems we face, is a good way to lose the election.
But this is heading towards the fringes of being on-topic.

Added by edit: Evolutionary theory (I just typed "evolutionary theology" and had to back up) is not anti-God, or even anti-all theology. But it certainly is anti-certain theologies.
Some religious perspectives (theologies) are willing and able to incorporate the worldly realities of evolutionary theory into their religious theologies. Thus their beliefs include "evolutionary theology"; They are "theological evolutionists".
Others may recognize that evolutionary theory is neither against nor in support of their theology. It is not part of their theology. They can be "atheistic evolutionists" and at the same time are theistic Christians.
