hmm..
ok, first, i don't feel like reading the whole thread atm
and second, i don't have any sort of long, involved, researched and thought-out ideas on this (unlike some of you, which i admire)
but regarding the original question/post, it seems like 2 totally separate things here.
because, We, as humans, are
NoT _The Universe_
we are just some animals living on one of god-knows-how-many (yes, god with a small 'g') - planets in this vast space...
neways...when i think of 'evolution' i think of, for example, how we as humans, &/or the other animals, came to be on this planet.
when i think of how the Universe started, i do not think of evolution, rather, the big bang, or whatever other theories there may be.
so i guess, i think this should've been two separate discussions, in order to keep things more clear.
dunno, that's just my 2 cents.
