Just for balance, I'm a Christian and I have no problem with accepting evolutionary theory.  I don't agree that the future is predestined or that our lives are mapped out by 'God's plan'.     Those who believe in an authoritative, controlling and punishing God are welcome to their belief, but you do not represent all Christians,   

We have plenty of biblical references to love, forgiveness, reconciliation, humility, kindness and more to create an image of God that we can Verify in the good hearts of our neighbors and community.   We see the strength of life reflected in the natural world by the amazing growth/adaption of life to new threats, or  drawn  to new opportunities  over millions of years.    I might even call it miraculous, (because I'm unable to internalize such a length of time).

Our nature is to survive and survive using all the resources of intellect and heart that we are given.   If we do it for love, we will survive.
