Hell we only very recently figured where mass came from.

Evolution is the worst theory ever thought of in human history and the evidence against it now is overwhelming. I mean even if you don't have a religion, the Big Bang is now accepted as fact, due to the large amount of evidence supporting it and it shows that the universe had a beginning. Time and space themselves had a beginning, so how does Evolution account for what happened before the existence of time, space and matter?

They have been 100% proven. That's what a theory is.

No. A scientific theory could still be disproven. We could find out that the mechanism of evolution is the Walrus, and he masks his efforts by making it appear like natural selection. We couldn't find out that evolution doesn't exist because we can directly observe it.

...Earth existed after space, time and matter.
Evolution describes development of life in earth.
So, I guess your concern is kind of out of time-frame of Evolution.

I think genocide was worse.

Just saying.

and the evidence against it now is overwhelming.


Your dictionary must be a little off. "Overwhelming" is not a synonym for "non-existent".

I mean even if you don't have a religion, the Big Bang is now accepted as fact, due to the large amount of evidence supporting it and it shows that the universe had a beginning.


Indeed.

And?

Time and space themselves had a beginning, so how does Evolution account for what happened before the existence of time, space and matter?


It doesn't. It's not meant to. No one thinks it does. Why would it?
