"What about if we say that evolution has no goal?"

well then you are practicing mental masturbation. the entire universe is working rapidly right now for us to enjoy life.
That is a pretty bold assertion. On what basis do you speak for the universe?

What evolutionary goal do you see in the extinction of 99.9% of all the species that ever lived? What universal pinnacle do you see in the destruction of the Earth by the Sun, of the solar system by the Andromeda galaxy or by the heat death of the entire universe itself?

One of the most irrational of all the conventions of modern society is the one to the effect that religious opinions should be respected....That they should have this immunity is an outrage. There is nothing in religious ideas, as a class, to lift them above other ideas. On the contrary, they are always dubious and often quite silly.
