Evolution theory says nothing about "complexity." It merely says organisms change to adapt to their environment or they die.

Stop being ridiculous. Are you saying that man did not evolve from lower species? Are you saying that evolution does not say that man evolved from lower species? Or are you saying that a man is no more complex than a single celled bacteria? Pick and choose Junior, either way you lose.

What is your definition of a "lower species?" The term does not come up in scientific literature. All species either adapt to their environment or they die. Humans adapted to their environment, supplanting other hominid species, including their progenitor species. There is no "lower" or "higher" species because there is not scientific manner to determine whether a species is lower or higher than any other. Species either adapt and survive or they don't. That, in a nutshell, is the sum total of Evolutionary theory. There is no overarching philosophy, no rules for living one's life, nothing metaphysical at all. It is simply a description of a process, nothing more nor less. Your constant forays into the metaphysical indicate a clear misunderstanding of science in general and evolution in particular.
