Socialism rewards people based on the type of job they have. So since a Doctor is worth more the a cashier, they get more goods. So wouldn't socialism work in tandum with evolution by rewarding the more important people insociety? If anything I see Socialism and Atheism working hand in hand.

The issue with that is the Economic calculation problem. There is no objective criteria by which a person or group of people can determin the worth of a job or good. That is why we have markets by which worth is determined by prices and supply/demand.
