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. 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.

There are individuals here on FreeRepublic who have stated such. Michael Behe also believes this, however he believes that the intelligent designer's intervention is more overt and detectable.
The teaching of evolution is used for the point of being able to state that the world exists without a creator.
By whom? Please be specific, explaining exactly how the theory of evolution is used to justify the premise that the world exists without a creator.
That has been so stated by all the "fathers" of evolution.
Please provide citations from the "fathers" where they explain how the theory of evolution demonstrates that the world exists without a creator.

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. That would be inaccurate. For example, Darwin said, in the last sentence of the 6th Edition of On the Origin of Species:
"There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been originally breathed by the Creator into a few forms or into one; and that, whilst this planet has gone circling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being evolved."
