Hi Ham and All, Evolution can be described as levels in existence. How many levels? For myself I accept seven levels in existence. Reality has a number of faces.
Accepting a "duality in existence" is either fish or fowl and you don't gain much clarity in only an acceptance of "yes" and "no". "Oh My Stars!" is so much more real! A sensible awareness of the primacy of existence aids in the evaluation of a description of evolution.
