"Ultimately there is no right or wrong period. It's all defined by human desire."
You made my point exactly as to the social consequences of athestic evolutionary thought. It produces a society that is totally self centered. I am trully sorry that you cannot grasp this and its danger. However, I must again concede that even if a society devoid of things other than self is a natural, and undesireable, result of evolutionary thought being fully embraced - that does not prove macro evolution to be wrong.
It should however, give "theistic" evolutionists pause about what they are giving "aid and comfort to."

Evolution doesn't play into it. It's just the 'consequences' of not believing in an absolute source of morals within the universe. And ultimately, consequences are irrelevant. What is, is, regardless of what you think of it. It produces a society that is totally self centered.
No, self-centered people produce a society that is totally self-centered. Or are you saying that the only motive for you to be a nice guy is fear of some divine entity threatening you with punishment for stepping out of line?

Exactly. Even if what you are saying is true -- and it is not -- it has no bearing on the validity of the theory of evolution. So why the hell do you bring it up?
It should however, give "theistic" evolutionists pause about what they are giving "aid and comfort to."
So they should abandon scientific discussion and leave it to be overrun by creationists who have no scientific training because you fear the potential consequences?
