3 things about that massive post that I didnt dare read all of:

1) Many theories do imply that humans evolved from apes. I have always heard two different stories. The one you are saying and the one that says that we came from apes. I have seen several diagrams showing the evolution from ape to human. Honestly, though, I couldnt give a fuck. Strong evolution makes just about as much sense to me as the theory of Creation.

2) Never did I correlate The Big Bang Theory with evolution. I was quite aware when I made that post that the two are different theories to explain different things. On the other hand, many of those who believe in hardcore evolution, hold the big bang theory to be true. I think the big bang theory is a crock of shit. My post was a bunch of random thoughts, most of which were not tied together. I know about Charles Darwin and his writings. I think that strict evolution and the Big Bang Theory hold little weight when truly explaining the "origin of species" or the origin of the universe.

3) Something cant come out of nothing. If you have nothing, how can something start? Big Bang Theorists attempt to bypass the theory of creation by creating a story that makes just about as much sense. Creationism says that there has always been a god. That makes no sense because how can something always be? On the other hand, Big Bang Theorists try to say that something started out of nothing (because they fail to explain where those atoms that started the event came from), a spontaneous explosion of events began. Im sorry, but that sounds stupid too. If someone wanted to say that god put the atoms there that started the big bang, why couldnt they just say that he created the universe? If we are going to go as far as saying that a god exists and started this chain of events, it could be just as plausible that Creationism is true. Im not saying I believe in either theory: creationism or evolution. My point is that evolutionists and big bang theorists say that their theories make much more sense in explaining how the universe and life began as opposed to creationism and I just dont see that. Here, it is necessary to lump the big bang theory and evolution together because those two theories are answers to the two questions that creationism answers. One theory for the universe and life as opposed to two theories for the univesrse and life. That would be my reasoning for dropping the big bang theory in the same comment as my comment on evolution.
