You can understand why this doesn’t sit well with many people who think that we came into being differently from other species, as the special goal of a divine intention. Does our existence have any purpose or meaning that distinguishes us from other creatures? Evolution is also thought to erode morality. If, after all, we are simply beasts, then why not behave like beasts? What can keep us moral if we’re nothing more than monkeys with big brains? No other scientific theory produces such angst, or such psychological resistance.
Joshua Dunham
This is true. Christians do not like the natural consequences of evolution. If God did not create us, then there is no such thing as morality. No accountability to God. It would be a sad existence indeed. But just because Christians don't like it, this doesn't give it an ounce more evidence. So much of his argument is that Christians don't like it because of religion despite the evidence. Just give the evidence already! Oh wait...you don't have any :).
