You realize that people who believe in God don't say the world is the best of all possible worlds. Instead they say the world is fundamentally flawed and there's a cosmic struggle between good and evil going on. But from a materialist Darwinian perspective, there's no such thing as evil: "Evolution: Free will and punishment and meaning in life" (Abstract) Dr. William Provine Second Annual Darwin Day Celebration University of Tennessee, Knoxville Feb. 12, 1998 Naturalistic evolution has clear consequences that Charles Darwin understood perfectly. 1) No gods worth having exist; 2) no life after death exists; 3) no ultimate foundation for ethics exists; 4) no ultimate meaning in life exists; and 5) human free will is nonexistent.
