"The logical flaw in the theory [of evolution]...is that it undercuts itself.  For if all our ideas are products of evolution, then so is the idea of evolutionary psychology itself.  Like all other constructs of the human mind, it is not true but only useful for survival.  Daniel Dennett may call Darwinism a "universal acid" that dissolves away traditional religion and ethics...but it is the height of wishful thinking...to presume that the acid will dissolve only other people's views, while leaving his own views untouched.  Once the very possibility of objective truth has been undermined, then Darwinian evolution itself cannot be objectively true....If all ideas are products of evolution, and not really true but only useful, then evolution itself is not true either.  And why should the rest of us pay it any attention?...Discovering that a philosophy is self-referentially absurd is a sure sign that it is fatally flawed....

 

[I]f we are "machines" created by natural selection, how can we "correct" the force that created us?...How does a machines ruse up against its creator?...There is nothing in evolutionary psychology to account for ...the power of choice...[U]niversal human experience confirms the reality of moral choice, evolutionary psychologists cannot actually live on the basis of their own determinist theory.  They may try to, but when the contradiction between theory and life grows too pressing, they suddenly abandon their theory and proclaim their autonomy from the power of the genes...

 

...[I]f we are really programmed by our genes through Darwinian selection, how could anyone make an "un-Darwinian" decision?  In fact, how could anyone make free moral decisions at all?  The notion that we are free to act in un-Darwinian ways is completely irrational within the Darwinian worldview. 

 

The reason people are compelled to take an irrational leap is that no matter what they believe, they are still made in the image of God.  Even when they reject the witness of Scripture, they still face the constant witness of their own human nature.  At some point, even the most adamant scientific materialists find that their own humanity resists the deterministic implications of the Darwinian worldview--that human nature stubbornly refuses to remain within the cramped confines of any mechanistic philosophy....When that happens, they simply issue a declaration of independence from the power of the selfish genes, and take a leap of faith to a traditional concept of moral freedom and responsibility,...even through it is completely unwarranted within their own worldview....Christians can live consistently on the basis of their worldview because it fits the real world (Pearcey, pg. 217- 219)"
