Nor does evolution argue for necessary superiority among members of the same species in some inevitable super state like spencer believed that's Lamarckism.

No, you see Orochi, people who are religious (or have "irrational beliefs" as you so eloquently put it) are just dumber and fundamentally inferior to those who don't. Therefore, less evolved. It's a very scientific conclusion.

I guessing this really is sarcasm but in case it isn't this does not follow
Not really rationality and intelligence don't necessarily follow. One can be smart but irrational and one can be dumb but completely rational ultimately are not purely binary . Nor by the way is being smart and rational mean one is more evoloved.If a asteroid struck tomorrow likely the only thing alive will not be Stephen hawking's but a cockroach. Reason and Intelligence are powerful tools in evolution but far from the only and in context far from the best.
