That's interesting,I always thought that evolution was a constant from even before life began.
​
Evolution, as in 'things change', covers everything. The word is used many times, in many differenct theories, simply to indicate that things changed. The Theory of Evolution only deals with life, however, many people seem to think that whenever you mention evolution (change) if falls under the heading of the ToE and many then insist that the ToE must explain these things. This is not the case.

The concept of evolution via natural selection is certainly most important in terms of explaining the diversity of biotic forms, but don't sell it short.

I don't and didn't intend too.

I was merely trying to point out that when people use the word 'evolution' they aren't always talking about the ToE.
