Sounds familiar.

So someone can come out from under the supposed "control" of their "rational" mind? This both defies the meaning of control and defines what is rational in the first place according to your materialistic philosephy (or religion, to be more accurate). If our mind evolved, then I would expect the "survival of the fittest" and reproduction cornerstones for the evolutionary theory to be the only applicable direction for the DNA to "direct" the mind to. Yet there are people who sacrifice themselves to save others, the "fitter" saving the less "fit." Also, giving up our belongings to feed the poor, again the "fitter" providing for the less "fit." And some people choose to not have any sexual intercourse with anyone at all, willingly, because they never had gotten married. And you would expect that those who do anyways to be directed by DNA to not use protection, as it isn't beneficial for producing more DNA. If we can deny DNA's supposed purpouse (to produce more DNA like itself), then our minds can't have an evolutionary origin. And if it doesn't have an evolutionary origin, then evolution can't be true, at least in the materialistic sense of the word, which says that the natural is all there is. But then that would circle right back around to materialism to define what is natural.
