Evolutionists are right!

People like Dick Dawkins are right? How can I say such a thing?

Well, it's 'right' in a limited kind of way.

They are asking the right question.

Our origin is the fundamental question. Its answer tells who we are, what the world is like, and illuminates our quest for significance. So, it's a religious question!

In the case of evolution, mind you, the lamp is not working and no illumination occurs, because evolution is a knowledge-free industry!

The strangest thing happens when people attempt to answer the question of origins in two ways at once.

This is the ploy of theistic evolution, which attempts to add materialism's evolutionary dogma to the notion that God created.

But we end up with a funny sort of 'creating' that undoes the very meaning of the word: creation by non-creation (that is by random working of mindless material processes).

So what would this answer tell us about who we are, what our world is like, and how would it illuminate our quest for significance? Or would it even explain why we act as though we are significant, because at every turn whatever reference to God adds, acceptance of evolution takes away.
