Evolution says the cosmos moves from simplicty (actually: nothingness) to complexity.

The Bible says complexity, intelligence, design has been there from all beginning on, it does not matter whether you have a creationist's view or subscribe to the idea of the blind watchmaker. In both cases, complexity has been there from all beginning on: in creation, and in form of it's creator.

Both concepts cannot be more antagonistic to each other!

Wilber gave a title to the book I linked, that is a formula representing evolution as well, the title in English is "Sex-Ecology-Spirituality", which the German publisher translated I think much better: "Eros-Kosmos-Logos". To speak it out: from Eros over Kosmos to final Logos. Complexity unfolding.
