Not sure if it's kosher to reply to someone who can't respond in this thread, but I'm sure I'll find out.
Does an evolutionary atheist ever ask himself - "what exactly are we"? If not, why, and is the confidence in evolution merely a confidence that it is happening, but deeper questions aren't related to the theory of evolution and should be addressed by philosophy?
To the section in bold, the answer is yes. Just as our confidence in auto mechanics or our confidence in chemistry or our confidence in orbital mechanics is based on the fact that we can observe and predict and test - in short, that they
happen. The question creationists need to ask themselves is why they single out evolutionary theory for such attention? There is no underlying philosophical question regarding evolution that does not equally apply to every other aspect of human activity and knowledge. When you drive across a bridge on your way to work in the morning, your very survival depends on theories that are descriptive of nature's behavior, and that can be abstracted to precisely the same level as can questions about evolution or the nature of man.
The human body, as it is, is mind-blowingly complex, in fact no words can properly describe the organisational complexity involved
May I suggest you invest in one of the new tubeless, puncture resistant minds? They've been available for several hundred years now. In fact, words
can quite adequately describe the organizational complexity of the human body. It would just take a whole lot of them. You seem inordinately fond of the "there's too many zeros in this number so it must be god" fallacy.
(especially when you consider how proteins move atoms to repair broken links within cells, how those 100 000 trillion trillion atoms of your body constantly move and interact in an organised fashion to create who you are).
How many atoms are in that bridge I mentioned above? Does not each of them have to "constantly move and interact in an organised fashion" just as surely and predictably as the atoms in your body? Is it your impression that bridge atoms behave differently than cell atoms? Why does the number "100 000 trillion trillion" impress you? How many cells should a body have? Is there any reason to suspect that any one of those atoms is not behaving in exactly the same fashion as the other 100 000 bajillion quintillion googletillion atoms in the universe?
To return to the first quote above where you ask "Does an evolutionary atheist ever ask himself - 'what exactly are we'?"
I must say, this is arguably one of the dimmest questions I have ever encountered. Setting aside the evolution/atheist pratt, did you even think about you wrote? You are addressing people who are making it their life's work to try to answer a very big part of that question. For you to imply that those who actually study the subject in a sustained and systematic way are likely to take a shallower view than you is, well, given my tendency to stray into the nether regions of the English vernacular, I will allow you to finish the sentence yourself.
