Let me guess: you have a sawed off shotgun that you call "god."

Despite my children's free will I didn't allow them to play in traffic.Your kids don't have free will in this matter because because you force them not to play in traffic. When they grow up will you still follow them around and stop them from doing things?
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
