Again, please tell me how your theory of evolution would work without the big bang theory and zillions of years. And not transitional changes, but species changes.

"Zillion" is not a number. Evolution requires about 4.5 billion years (give or take) to get where it is now, though estimates of the universe's age are at around 15 billion (someone point out if that's in error), so there's really no challenge there. As for the Big Bang, well, that's irrelevant. It doesn't matter how the universe came to exist, evolution works so long as life exists and replicates itself imperfectly.

You're the one asserting that evolution requires that the Big Bang be true. You need to explain how falsifying the Big Bang would make evolution impossible.

Sorry for appearing condescending.

I think I'm beginning to see your perspective on this.

Without the creation of the universe, we could not have evolution...right? Thus, you say, it is incumbent upon those who profess support for the theory of evolution that we must first explain the creation of the universe (unless, of course it wasn't created but was always...there.)

I think this is your latest position (please correct me if I'm wrong).

You may be in the wrong forum. This one is about the theory of evolution of species.

There are other forums, I'm sure, which speak to the "orgin" of the universe. Such a topic, however, is not part of evolutionary theory.
