The most explicit conclusions that I have heard drawn from the statement
you are looking for are in the statement made by Will Provine during one
of his debates with Phil Johnson:
"The philosophical conclusions of Darwinism have been strongly supported
by modern evolutionary biology: no gods, no purposes in nature, no life
after death, no ultimate foundations for ethics, no ultimate meaning for
life, no free will for humans."
Will said that since we have no free will, then criminals should not be
punished. His idea is that of a totally mechanistic universe. The quote
above can be found at:
