The way I understand it, the accepted age of the universe is simply not long enough to provide for the complexity of the life forms we have here to have developed through Darwinian evolution. Not even a virus, let alone a human being.

Thus the theory of "Quantum Reality" which I understand as infinite, parallel realities existing side by side (A concept I find much harder to accept than that of a creator!). So with this theory we now have an infinite time span for life to develop out of a chemical pool or soup, and evolve into all the life forms we see today. A lot of top scientists accept this - Stephen Hawking, for one.

To me, frankly, it sounds like nonsense. If macro evolution really depends on this theory, then I think it should be taught along with macro evolution as soon as macro evolution is taught. If you are going to teach a kid, as fact, that life began from non-life, and all of the life forms that exist now and have ever existed evolved from that very first life that itself came from non-life, then also teach them that your explanation only works if you accept the concept of Quantum Reality. Then let them decide if after having that explained to them, they feel comfortable accepting Darwinian evolution without further consideration or not.

It seems to me that Quantum Reality is the dirty little secret of macro evolution. I do not understand why it is not the centerpiece of every discussion of evolution.

Then you simply don't understand it.
