We are going to die, and that makes us the lucky ones. Most people are never going to die because they're never going to be born. The potential people who could've been here in my place, but who will in fact never see the light of day, outnumber the sand grains of Sahara. Certainly those unborn ghosts include greater poets than Keats, scientists greater than Newton. We know this because the set of possible people allowed by our DNA so massively outnumbers the set of actual people. In the teeth of these stupefying odds it is you and I, in our ordinariness, that are here. We privileged few who won the lottery of birth against all odds.

I think it's wrong because it goes against the 2nd law of thermodynamics and Darwin recanted it on his deathbed and Hitler believed it and dogs don't give birth to cats and monkeys don't give birth to humans and with evolution there is no God and so no absolute morality so we may as well be evil which is wrong and they found a tree that went through all the geological strata and Darwin himself said the eye was irreducibly complex and fossils make the baby Jesus cry and Lucy was a chimpanzee and gluons are satanic and no one has ever seen evolution and I didn't come from a monkey and the banana shows God's designing hand and I'm never going to consider I may be wrong because John 3:16.
