Claim CB420:

Evolution does not explain people's desire to create art or their appreciation of it.

Response:

  1. This is an argument from incredulity. Not knowing how something is explained doesn't mean it can't be explained.

  2. Art is a form of creativity, and creativity has obvious evolutionary advantages (for example, allowing us to think up new and better tools).
