to evolutionists

Are evolutionists only concerned with how life on Earth has EVOLVED?OR do evolutionists also suggest how life on Earth began?If once there was no biological life on Earth, and then there was biological life on Earth, this suggests to me that there has to be a beginning to life on Earth.I have been raised with the notion that nothing happens without something making it happen, cause and effect I believe it's called. In my limited knowledge I see evolution as the effect but I'm not quite sure about the cause.Have I just asked the same question 3 times???

"Evolutionist" may be the sticky part here - that word is most often used by the "creationist" camp to suggest that people who accept the evidence for evolution (or for an earth older than 6000 years, or for life arising through natural means, ....) are following some sort of religion by doing so.Are you asking, "Are biologists only concerned....?Clarify for me, and give a more descriptive title, and I'll promote.Edited by AdminCoragyps, : No reason given.

Is it not the other way around?Evolutionist, to me does not suggest people who are following some sort of religion.
Rather, creationist, I thought were people who suggest the Earth is 6000 years old and are following a religion!OR, am I reading your reply totally wrong?
