We started off with physical evolution and got our form. then we somehow developed language, which meant cultural evolution could race so we could change our behavior really quickly instead of over hundreds and hundreds of years. and then comes moral evolution, which means we're not frightfully far along with people. and maybe we end up with a spiritual evolution, which is this connectedness with the rest of the life forms on the planet.
Spiritual Mean Years
The evolution of man is the evolution of his consciousness, and 'consciousness' cannot evolve unconsciously. the evolution of man is the evolution of his will, and 'will' cannot evolve involuntarily.

Religion becomes a matter of belief, and belief acts as a limitation on the mind; and the mind then is never free. but it is only in freedom that you can find out what is true, what is god, not through any belief; because your belief projects what you think god ought to be, what you think ought to be true. if you believe god is love, god is good, god is this or that, your very belief prevents you from understanding what is god, what is true.
Powerful Believe Thinking
Neo-darwinian language and conceptual structure itself ensures scientific failure: major questions posed by zoologists cannot be answered from inside the neo-darwinian straitjacket. such questions include, for example, 'how do new structures arise in evolution?' 'why, given so much environmental change, is stasis so prevalent in evolution as seen in the fossil record?' 'how did one group of organisms or set of macromolecules evolve from another?' the importance of these questions is not at issue; it is just that neo-darwinians, restricted by their resuppositions, cannot answer them.

We but half express ourselves, and are ashamed of that divine idea which each of us represents. it may be safely trusted as proportionate and of good issues, so it be faithfully imparted, but god will not have his work made manifest by cowards.
