The process of biological evolution starts at the point where the first imperfect replicators start replicating for the first time. How those first imperfect replicators came to exist is not addressed by the process of evolution. Basic to the theory is the lack of an intelligence behind the life we see here, now. Hence the Great Debate among evolutionists, creationists and intelligent designers. Where the proto-organism came from would be central to the issue, don't you think?

I do not understand. There exists no such theory.

Nosir. The debate exists because certain individuals find certain observations of reality a challenge to religious beliefs that they do not wish to abandon.

No, it is not relevant to the theory of evolution. It appears as though you have an incorrect understanding regarding the basis for the theory of evolution.
