What about the likelihood of that next term in the sequence coming together? Certainly the nature of the being that come next into the association is determinative.

In any case, the appeal of Evolution to many people is that it provides them the comfort of a demiurge who does NOT judge them to the discomfort of a God who does.

Don't know what you're trying to say here.

The appeal of evolution for me is that it provides a consistent and logical explanation for a large body of observations about the world. I can't speak for other people, except to say that a scientific theory generally shouldn't be mistaken for an ethical treatise.
