Astrobiologist David Deamer believes that life can spontaneously emerge without design, but he thinks lay people are too uneducated to understand how this is possible, so he gives them the watered-down version of Darwin’s natural selection instead, which he knows is inadequate to explain the complexity of life.

So it's OK for an evo to put the explanation for how we got here in lay people's terms, even when he knows is inadepuate, but if God puts it in lay people's terms in the Bible, then it can be mocked and derided for *scientific inaccuracy*, and stated that it's wrong.

Hmmm, double standard anyone?

Is the lay public really too dense for the deeper knowledge of how evolution works?.

Of course not, but the self-appointed elite will never acknowledge that. Thinking that they're intellectually superior than the unwashed masses strokes their egos too much and gives them too much justification (so they think) to force their ideology down everybody's throats through litigation.

Excellent point. But there is a big difference. The Evos are holding back what the book of nature says about their so-called “theory” because it undermines their Darwinian faith.
