You wrote "If this life is but an evolutionary training ground for returning to some heavenly home, then upon arrival we will indeed appreciate and understand, like Adam & Eve, that becoming like God requires knowledge of good and evil (Genesis 3:22)."
You also wrote you're "A Mormon and fan of Darwin."
Charles Darwin demonstrated that gods were not necessary to explain the diversity of life. If the god of the gaps can't hide there, what's the point of hiding it anywhere else?
I assume you believe in a god anyway. Also you probably believe in a "heavenly home" which by the way is an idea that makes terrorism possible.
You accept a basic scientific fact that makes supernatural ideas unnecessary but you still believe in the supernatural. It's not logical and it's not honest to do that.

"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne
