<<< I think that's a step up the evolutionary ladder from not believing in God at all.>>>

Evolution from what to what? From virtuous deist to evil atheist? Law abiding deist to criminal atheist? Educated deist to ignorant atheist?

Atheism statistically correlates with increase in education and decrease in criminality.

Why you should think it more evolved to believe that responsibility resides in a being external to one than in oneself I can't imagine.
