I would say evolution is a philosophy but not physics. Evolution is born of science but primarily useful to the common person as an explanation which frees them from religious forgiveness. Physics is a definition of rules. Religion may not prove God exists but science, thus far, has failed to prove Thou doesn’t. Both have anecdotal evidence but science is on firmer ground. I think a telescope is being built, in Chile, that might come as close to proof as we can get. We’ll see if religion moves on.

I agree about Humanism but disagree about our country. It’s long had the possibility of being more than just another hole but has never achieved that. It now seems that it won’t.
