Why, of course there is. The doctrine is found in all the writings and speeches of the major evolutionists for many years.

Perhaps you could outline this theory and provide references for it. It is and has been plainly stated by those who write in the field and those who teach it. The implication is a plain as arc light.

There are those who accept evolution and believe that no intelligence is behind the origin of life, however that does not make such a belief part of the theory of evolution, nor does that make such a belief a scientific theory itself.

Why do you care? Because they attack evolution?

Because they frequently spread misinformation, either because they themselves are misinformed or because they are dishonest.Evolution is attacking them.

Evolution is simply an explanation behind species diversity based upon observed evidence. It can "attack" no one.

Yes? And who might those be who think evolution is guided by intelligent design? The teaching of evolution is used for the point of being able to state that the world exists without a creator. That has been so stated by all the "fathers" of evolution.

If you object to that use, fell free to criticize them.
