"You seem to be assuming that anyone who understands biological evolution and finds it convincing (any scientist)is an atheist. This is simply not true. You can hold the tenets of modern science, including the TOE and remain faithful to God; for if God created evolution, denying God's work is the same as denying God. The systems God put in place at the Creation of the universe indirectly created evolution. Thus, God created biological evolution."

Negative. I am saying atheists have nothing to gain from a god if one exists. Not that people who believe in evolution. Personally I accept that however the universe was created, is secondary to the need of salvation. It does not matter if the creation was literal or figurative, it happened and must have happened.

Atheists have nothing to gain from god is a given.

"Not that people who believe in evolution", is incoherent.

I agree with your last thought, but know by the evidence for biological evolution that creation was not the literal nonsense espoused by the various classes of creationuts.
