Geez, the big bang and the beginning of life HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH EVOLUTION!!

You are half correct. I was talking about evolution as a cosmological theory. I guess you don't understand cosmology. Evolution as biological theory does not address the big band or beginning of life - but is also does not address the origin of the universe and that is the subject of this thread (to quote you "Hello, Mcfly, anyone home")

If your position is evolution is not an explaination of the origin of the universe - why the HECK are you on this thread?

If you don't understand what we are talking about - please don't jump in the thread

I can't speak for anyone but myself, but one of the reasons that I'm here is to correct anyone who ignorantly (or, after they've been told enough times to know better, dishonestly) asserts that evolution has anything to do with the origins of life or the universe or that it has any bearing on cosmology.

to try to beat it into the heads of blockheaded numbskulls like you to finally accept the fact that no one, at any time, in any place, ever claimed that evolution is an explanation of the origin of the universe.

Since we are all obviously adherents of the Darwinian Orthodoxy (?) we'd obviously adhere to "The Origin of the Species," not the "origin of the universe."

Note new tactic of speaking to LVD's level, in hopes he picks up on something... anything... Beuller?

Let me guess: English isn't your native language.

Let me guess again: you've never studied Cosmology either at a under-grad or graduate level.
