Evolutionary science is not based upon any philosophy other than the scientific method.

Oh? The scientific method is a philosophy?

And what about naturalistic materialism? You mean science isn't based on that as well?

I believe that philosophy in science would be "methodological naturalism." However, a number of scientists' theological view is "metaphysical naturalism" or atheism and they seem to think of the two as the same thing.
