I do not have time right now to totally get into this argument, but Einstein's thoery of "The Big Bang" in many ways goes totally against evolution.

WHAT?!?

How, exactly, does a theory on the origins of the cosmos contradict the theory of evolution? There is no logical connection whatsoever.

I understand why you won't get into the argument. It's a total fabrication, there's no contradiction whatsoever, but you think that it makes you sound smart to make the claim.

Lewis is one of the greatest thinkers of our time. No, he was not a biologist, but his thoughts and opinions have been considered among the most inlighting and thoughtful of any in the last century.

I still wouldn't have trusted him to perform open-heart surgery. A person can be brilliant without being an expert in a specific field. There is no evidence to suggest that CS Lewis was a well-researched biologist. As such, he has no credibility on the issue of evolution.

And you are absolutely wrong if you think "life from non-life" has nothing to do with macro-evolution. "Life" had to evolve!!! according to Darwin.

So? How life came into existence has no bearing on "life evolving". The ultimate origins of life has absolutely no relevance to the theory of evolution. Only those ignorant of the theory or fundamentally dishonest make such a claim.

If life has no purpose (as evolution suggests)

Evolution suggests no such thing.

then why do humans spend their lives trying to prove its purpose.

Because humans feel more comfortable if they can claim to have easy answers.

Ok, if evolution has nothing to do with the origin of life, then this whole arguemnt does not matter!! The writer of the article was saying that "creation" should not be thought because we have evolution!!! That was the original point.

If evolution has nothing to do with life's beginnings, you need to argue with the writer of the story, not me.
