The universe has always existed, in one form or another, time merely being a mortal construct.
And humanity came about as a result of evolution. Didn't you know?

Edit: To clarify, the cheese was gorgonzola.

It happened and it is done 6 days was the length of time in scripture. Unlike evolution which is an on going process.
I find this more realistic than the accidental happenstance of getting all the micro and macro laws of the universe setup to form and maintain life over time, and we have not even addressed the grocery store of specific items required to ...[text shortened]... he correct place, at the right times, to be merged in the right order, and qualities, and so on!

Do you think that scientists know the exact age of the universe for sure without a shadow of a doubt? Are you aware of all the unprovable presuppositions that have to be made?

The theory of evolution implies that humans and other complex organisms evolved from simple lifeforms, an implication corroborated by empirical evidence. This is obviously in contradiction with the Biblical account of the magical creation of complex lifeforms.
This is the lines along which we should be researching our origins. The truth has been hidden and obscured for so long that we have come to believe the obfuscations .
I think the main problem with me finding evidence to satisfy you will be the fact that the spiritual component(s) of humans cannot be detected by science.
For example the kundalini, (the energy shaft that aligns the chakras) , will not show up on any physical radar. It can however be felt by anyone.

Originally posted by @sonhouseActually no for me the question is where did everything come from, the Big Bang doesn’t address that question at all. Everything depends upon that question, so all speculations about any theory you choose maybe a lot conjecture about a possible beginning that has nothing to do with how it all really started. Evolution with life isn’t part of that discussion, leaping to is just making more assumptions about things that might not have anything to do with reality as well.

The only ones I know whose 'religion' talks about 'aliens' is Scientology, and as you know, that's not a religion, either.

What has doing drugs got to do with it? The truth is the truth. Peoples personal lives should not come into it. You remain a grub in my book.
Originally posted by @kazetnagorraYou do understand what the word ‘estimate’ means right?
Which "unprovable presuppositions" are made while estimating the age of the Universe?
How do you prove that the conditions we observe today for example the rate of expansion of the universe has always been the same in the past?
It is an assumption that cannot be proven.
Hence it is not an exact science.
