The concept of evolution, to me, refers to the extreme adaptation, change, and innovation that occurs over hundreds of thousands and millions of years. It doesn’t explain the unbridgeable gulf that separates non-living matter and life itself. That seems to be the fundamental problem, to my mind unsolvable: how did a non-living universe give rise to life? And not merely to life, but to intelligent life capable of observing, reflecting, and asking questions regarding that universe?
