What Does the Religion of Darwinism actually have faith in?

[surada]

It isn't a faith in Darwin as a man, nor faith in "science," meaning the people who claim to practice science and get the media's attention and approval. Their dogmatic approach and exclusion of critical thinking about their religion is how they keep Darwinism propped up, but those things are not what they have faith in.

But, they must have faith in something. How else could they believe (or for many pretend to believe), that all of the design that is so clearly apparent in the universe is actually the result of no design at all? What could allow them to even consider that all the complexity of life on Earth was created by a series of random events? In what do they have faith that could have allowed such an unlikely idea to be true?

The answer is the passage of time. We now know that there is much significance to the passage of time. Our second highest elected leader explained it thusly:



No matter how impossible it seems that a single light-sensitive cell developed (by random mutations) into the sophisticated vision systems that millions of different species possess, Darwinists explain it all by saying WTTE of, "well it took a long time, of course."

That is faith. If faith is to be admired for its own sake, it is an admirable faith, because it requires the believer to exclude so much evidence that is readily available for their observation.

Faith that people will evolve and change to whatever is deemed more beneficial for their interests and survival.

People want justice and peace/ security.
Freedom from stress, threats of abuse or oppression by others of conflicting interests and beliefs, whether religious or political, social or economic.

The trick is balancing the changes between what will get us what we want, and how much work or trouble does it take to use which approach or solution to get there?

People have lots of inertia and resistance to change.
There is a learning curve comparing past experiences with perception of future gains.

People evolve in mental awareness along with social developments.

Whatever is the path of least resistance that also maximizes the benefits, including peace of mind and sense of security, the human mind will weigh the options and pick the least stressful and most confident choices.

Having faith that people or life will move in the direction of preservation is the same motivation in survival as it is for peace and justice for humanity sake.

The conflicts come from what we do and don't have faith in as causing worse destruction, so we fight to avoid anything we fear as a threat to our sustainable survival.
