Creationists are frequently requested to propose a theory of creation, namely, why the particular life forms that exist were created.

I read no further because I don't believe this is what evolutionists mean by a theory of creation. They mean a theory based upon evidence and observation and produced through application of the scientific method.

My comments were specific to the post I was replying to. Whether your GUToB is naturalistic depends upon what you see as the source of non-random mutations. And whether it becomes accepted depends upon how well it is supported by evidence.
