AS I understand it, evolution deals with just that, the origins of life. And if you want to explain how things came about without Creation, you have to explain the whole ball of wax to be cogent.

"AS I understand it, evolution deals with just that, the origins of life."

Then you don't understand it. It has NEVER been about the origins of life.

"And if you want to explain how things came about without Creation, you have to explain the whole ball of wax to be cogent."

No, you really don't need to know where matter or life came from to study evolution.

Actually evolution deals with the orgin of SPECIES no life. It deals merely with adaptive mutations.

Actually, you have just demonstrated you don't understand it at all.

And if you want to explain how things came about without Creation, you have to explain the whole ball of wax to be cogent.

And if you want to explain how color theory came about without Creation ...
And if you want to explain how electromagnetic theory came about without Creation ...
And if you want to explain how gravitational theory came about without creation ...

I guess we dump all of these ... because none of them address Creation.
