You can't separate that underlying question "how did we come to be" from any discussion on the origin of species and it is inconsiderate to give agnostics like myself only one side of the story and purposely exclude things from the subject that I may have given some consideration to.

Sure I can. I'm employed to teach science, not to relieve people's existential angst. You want answers to the ultimate questions, hire a guru, not a professor.

It seems the Darwinists want complete control over our thoughts...

I want to control your thoughts by having no interest in answering some of your questions? Wow, that's a really subtle way of controlling someone!

Darwin looked for answers out of angst. We bother ourselves with learning anything out of angst. I could ask you: "Do we teach Darwinism to relieve people's origination angst?". Why teach the topic at all? We are here, what does it matter how we got here?
