No I recognize that materialism is a form of spirituality. You're just changing out worship of a creator with worship of the creation. Man becomes his own god. That's the whole point of evolution. Its a continuation of Gnostic mysticism.

on the right track. my personal stance is that none of the argument actually or will ever matter in a person's day to day life. evolution proved or not doesn't change the fact of our existence as an existent being within a greater being, but that level of greater being cannot, at the same time, be stretched or construed to a greater totality that proves a creator being because that falls into the a priori which inherently cannot allow for a creator being to have come from nothing (aquinas). have you read any of the writings of st. john of the cross? worth it with the usages of language as having given a commonality within which a god can exist between and outside of individuals. some medieval metaphysics that are a lot more interesting (absolutely a subjective claim) than current particle metaphysics that send people on tangents of infinitude which link back with (more so) to the infinitude that mr. plato put into place with his notions.
