Babe, what I'm trying to say is that the grandeur you are looking for in Evolution is literally in God's Word.
God's Word is the creative force in the universe; the power Evos ascribe to Evolution. The Word was not only Made Flesh, it is "alive and active, capable of searching out the true meanings and emotions"
As Napoleon said when cooped up on Corsica with only a Bible to keep him warm, he threw it across the room in fear one night saying "That book is alive!"
Indeed.
(Told you I was into metaphysics.)

No one claims that evolution is "The creative force in the universe". It's simply a process by which diverse species emerge, nothing more.
If you don't understand what evolution is, what it encompasses and -- most importantly for you, apparently -- what it does not encompass, then you have no credibility whatsoever when speaking about it.

Do you have a reference for this story?

It's still just a nonsense phrase. Call it metaphysics if you want.
