If the TOE is correct then it would be unfathomable to believe that insignificant lifeforms on an insignificant planet in an insignificant galaxy could ever grasp the most minute iota of understanding of such complex concepts as time and space and all the ridiculously complex thought systems that man has a grasp on. That kind of higher thought, found only in humans only serves to undermine and negate the validity of the TOE.
Nonsense. Evolution makes no predictions about what the exact abilities of any species should be.
And guess what? You're well off-topic on that, here. Go to a place where evolution is being debated (i.e. one of the theads devoted to that discussion) instead of spouting your crap everywhere.

.. the fact that a non-animal, human species actually concerns himself with the concept of time and space only proves to undermine the TOE ..
Once again: nonsense. That one species has developed cognitive ability as a result of evolution which enables it to consider questions beyond the moment means nothing except that it has done so.
Once again: off-topic. The question of whether evolution accomodates said ability is entirely irrelevant as to whether something may exist for infinite time or outside of time.
You maye have been able to determine this by a) knowing that the thread is in the Big Bang and Cosmology forum, meaning it has nothing to do with evolution at all, and b) reading the original post, which never implies, let alone mentions evolution.
You are way off base. Go to a thread where evolution is being discussed. This is not such a thread.
