Notes, evolution:

The so-called anti-evolution position isn't accurately described as that. What they're really after is the elimination of the information. They're anti-knowing about evolution.
They don't want the larger thing, the group mind, whatever, to become aware of its own shaping processes.
A child whose mind is being molded in an educational setting and is unaware of that as process, who's never thought to himself "I am being trained, taught, I'm being shaped by these teachers." As opposed to a child who sits listening to someone he knows is trying to shape his mind, and his future. It impedes the flow, and lessens the ability to control.
This is easier to see once you've gotten the difference between an evolution of exterior forces, the environment, predators, diseases etc.
And an evolution of interior forces, the marketplace, the culture, institutions, moral and legal systems etc.
We've been trained not to see that as evolutionary, but of course it is. The next step in that chain of illusions is to see it as evolutionary, but appropriate.
Anyone who's benefiting, or is promised to benefit, from the way things are, will see that as appropriate and good.
And that's pretty much right where the neo-cons began their assault on America and the world.
