Evolution implies that creation is not complete, hence the possibility of evolving. Charles Darwin is saying that the creation is an ongoing process, that existence is always imperfect, that it is never going to be perfect; only then can it go on evolving, reaching new peaks, new dimensions, opening new doors, new possibilities.

I do not believe
that God does not exist
I know for sure
he does not exist.
And thank God
that he does not exist
because the existence of God
would have created so many problems
difficulties
that life would have been almost impossible.
You may not have looked from this angle
from which I am going to talk to you
perhaps nobody has
ever tried to look at it from this angle.
The Christians say God created the world
In fact, the hypothesis of God is needed
for the creation
The world is there
somebody must have created it.
Whoever created it
that creator is God
But do you see the implication?
If the world is created
then there can be no evolution
Evolution means that creation continues
Think of the Christian story
God created the world in six days
and then on the seventh day he rested
since then he has been resting
The whole creation was completed
in six days
Now, from where can evolution
can have a possibility
Creation means: finished!
the full stop has arrived
on the sixth day
the full stop;
and after that there is no possibility of evolution
Evolution implies
that creation is not complete
hence the possibility of evolving
But God cannot create an incomplete world;
that will be going against God’s nature
He is perfect
and whatsoever he does is perfect
neither he is evolving,
nor the world is evolving
everything is at a standstill, dead.
This is the reason why the popes
were against Charles Darwin
because that man was bringing in an idea
which is going to kill God sooner or later
Those popes were perceptive in a way
they could see
the faraway implications of the idea of evolution.
Ordinarily you would not
connect creation and evolution
What connection is there
between God and Charles Darwin?
There is a connection. Charles Darwin is saying
that the creation is an ongoing process
that existence is always imperfect
it is never going to be perfect
only then can it go on evolving
reaching new peaks, new dimensions,
opening new doors, new possibilities
God had finished his work in six days
and not long ago
four thousand and four years before Jesus Christ was born
It must have been first of January,
a Monday
because we manage to fit God into everything
that we have created.
He has to follow our calendar
If you ask me, I will say
it must have been
Monday, the first of April, the Fools’ Day,
because that day seems to be
absolutely suitable for doing such an act
of creating a complete ready-made existence
If evolution becomes impossible,
life loses all meaning
life loses all future
then it has only a past
It is not unnatural
that religious people are constantly past-oriented
they have only the past
Everything has been already done
there is nothing to be done in the future
the future is empty, blank
