According to Darwinian evolution, the earth was never "perfect." Evolution was trial and error, death and disease, with no teleological end in sight. One might argue that evolution easily blends with teleologial notions of historical progress to produce the idea that the world is headed to perfection, but according to Darwinism it was never perfect in the past.

Good point. The Darwinists do not believe that the earth ever was perfect, but they DO BELIEVE that perfection is attainable if "lesser" men are prevented from interfering.

This does indeed seem to be what they believe. Although where atheists get their idea of "perfection" (not to mention their "moral imperative" to bring it about) is a mystery.
