There is no 'design' in evolution... the changes that worked survived while the changes that didn't work perished.

If you were born in India you'd be a Hindu/Jainist/Parsi/whatever. If you were born in England you might be a Catholic. Pakistan you'd probably be a Muslim.
Your individual beliefs are an accident of your birthplace.
The theory of evolution is not the theory of how life started. That is the theory of abiogenesis. Nothing science can say can deny your faith, since faith must exist without proof or it wouldn't be faith, but the idea that your faith can explain the universe? Uh huh.
it's very important to understand the difference between religion and faith. Because faith is not about having the right answers. Faith is a feeling. Faith is a hunch, really. It's a hunch that there is something bigger connecting it all... connecting us all together. And that feeling, that hunch, is God.

I like that line from the movie Keeping the faith
what if you have a feeling .. a hunch .. but you don't believe in a god?
blondeaozichick: I'll go with the bad prawn hunch myself .. its more believable
It’s not to hard to deuce just by looking at the numbers alone, the majority of sentient beings taking birth in any one-day, far excides in numbers those obtaining birth with human form. Probably i would agree in any one-day more prawns alone are born than humans… Listening to music or otherwise fretting away our precious opportunity to utilize our enhanced human ability to reason. Even just once in our lives not making space for a sensible debate. Or blindly accepting either of the mainstream religious viewpoints on face value without looking at other views, waists away a precious opportunity for serious consideration of the nature of our circumstance.
