More on evolution and God's Creation

Evolution is just another insight into the workings of God's Creation.

" The theory of evolution (theory/science/law of development), that is currently being put forth and is conquering the world, accords with the secrets of Kabbalah, better than any other philosophical theories.
Evolution, which follows a path of ascent, provides the foundation for optimism in the world, because how can we despair when we see everything evolving and ascending. And when we penetrate the inner workings of the ascending evolution foundation, we find in it divinity illuminated in perfect clarity, because on purpose there is no end (Ein Sof) in the action, from the beginning [with creation] he brought forth into action that which has no end (Ein Sof) in power [potential]." Rabbi Abraham Isaac Kook, Orot haKodesh, 2:537.
