That sounds more like a transhumanist thing, like uploading your mind into a superior android body or something. The only thing biological evolution selects for when you get down to it is reproductive success. We're not going to evolve laser eyes or telekinesis.
Most Theology says that man is more than just a biological being, that he has a soul, which is not made of biological material. If I may, what if the soul exists in a higher dimension that cannot be interacted with by the five senses? If so, why wouldn't our "souls" be evolving also? Eventually it could shed the biological body because it is no longer needed.
Just a thought, and I have nothing to back up any of it except for deductive logic.
Just pointing out that that sort of thing has nothing to do with the scientific concept of biological evolution, which in turn has nothing directly to do with atheism. There are actually atheists who don't accept evolution, and plenty of theists who do.
