Maybe there’s a confusion being caused here by the sentence “This is not how evolution spreads.”
It could mean at least one of the following:
1) “This is not how the theory of evolution itself was spread”
2) “This is not the mechanism according to which evolution spreads ideas”
It seems as if Lumifer interpreted your statement in the second sense (as I did initially), whereas reading your post in its original contexts suggests the first sense was the one which you intended.
