So you think "smarter minds see further, judge better" == "there is a soul that taps into a cosmic godhead"

Good golly, that's the silliest statement completely ignoring that our ancestors wiped most large mammals off the planet by seeing further and judging better by using tools, traps, and the environment around them because of their larger brain size.

Humans have "wiped off the planet" maybe a few hundred mammal species over the last 300K years. Meanwhile we are discovering 30-60 new mammal species every year.
Right, maybe in a million years they'll evolve into the large animals we wiped out. Unless you're just fine with anything larger than a dog being dead.
We discover 1-2 new large mammals every year out of those 30-60 total. They're not gone, they're just different.
