yes, but we've already been through that these are not necessary to the idea of evolution.
perhaps, materialism goes hand in hand with abiogenesis--i doubt it, but it is possible-- but certainly not with evolution alone.
and how is evolution more deterministic than a god who has foreknown all things? for things to be foreknown, they must have a set path.
such considerations are not idiotic, but the idea that such considerations are
necessity with evolution is idiotic.
