people seriously concerned with religion do not share your idea that evolutionary theory is atheistic

A book I have not read yet, but intend to, is Simon Conway-Morris' The Crucible of Creation. Conway-Morris is an eminent paleontologist and evolutionist (his work on the Burgess Shale fossils is a major subject of Gould's Wonderful Life), and is also a professing born-again Christian. I understand that his book agrees with Gould on the paleontological interpretation of the Burgess Shale fossils, but draws a very different philosophical point from them.
