No, he does not. Gould isn't much given towards theological arguments, although that is certainly one way to look at the conflict between evolution and it's discontents, specifically between evolution and Biblical creationists! (as Gould points out, "evolution", at least as a broader set of non-Darwinian theories, was never really in conflict with the mainstream of Christian scientific thinking; scary as it is to say, YEC and Biblical literalists were NOT the dominant force in the Victorian period that they are today)

Rather, Gould's main purpose with this lecture is to examine the problems people have with Darwin *even within those groups that purport to "accept" his theories*. Specifically, it's about the often misunderstood, profoundly anti-progressive implications of Darwin's theory of natural selection; how these implications are just as difficult for the modern popular imagination to come to grips with, as they were back in the Victorian age

Anyway, I don't want to give too much away, but it's good fun! All of the ideas presented herein can be found in his books (he even works in a shout-out to The Panda's Thumb), but you should check it out if you get the chance!
