I also don't like EvoThink because I am not a monkey or an ape and I am not descended from one. Darwinism effects who we think we are and if we are just dumb animals, we will tend to act in immoral ways (survival of the fittest).The details of who a person's ancestors were does control their own amount of self-worth, doesn't it? I mean, if you discovered that one of your ancestors was an evil person, you'd find yourself drawn to evil too, wouldn't you? Because our own destiny and fundamental place in this world was determined for you long ago, by ancestors long dead. You have no power to rise above (or fall below) your ancestral history. You're trapped.
Right?

No. I don't believe in EvoThink because apes have no immortal soul. The sins of the Father stop when you accept the blood shed on the cross. That is the meaning of the phrase "born again" -- you now have no ties to your pirate ancestors, or your thieving lib parents, or your adulterous uncle, unless you choose against the Lord to act in that manner. Is that what you were digging at?
