The Neo-Darwinian theory of biological evolution, the so-called modern synthesis is still regarded by many as ruling out theism. However, in order to establish this, two things need to be shown to be true: 1) that it is philosophically legitimate to deduce atheism (a worldview) from biology (a natural science), and 2) that there is scientific evidence that the theory of evolution can bear the weight placed upon it. I think the evidence shows that these claims have insubstantial warrant.
