Traditional Christians can rightly object to the dualism between the spiritual and material that Luther inadvertently introduced, thereby causing the divorce of spiritual restraint from secular activities, which helped transfer the maintenance of Christian morality to the state. This made men unable to climb upward plane by plane, men had to choose between the spiritual and the material. As R. H. Tawney put it, monasticism was secularized.
In the same way, in separating evolution from the Church and the spiritual, the Church must not make the mistake Luther made in the Reformation, this puts evolution in the hands of secularists and science alone and removes it from Christian morality.
The Theoevolutionary Church places evolution in the hierarchy of planes that reach to Godhood. Higher consciousness and higher intelligence are religious goals, they reflect the nature of Godhood and they are evolved from the simple to the complex in an ascending plane.
