What year did evolution start?

Not only do I not know, I don't really care when it started, to be honest.

What year did evolution start?

Anything in nature, such as gravity and all the rest of physics and chemistry and whatever else happens -- all of it got started we read in via Genesis 1:1 when God began this Universe -- that God made Nature (all that exists). So, any particular events in nature, including any way that nature evolves over time is His doing. God's action. Thus the answer can be in the most general way 'the current estimate for the age of the Universe is 13.8 bn years'.

I almost made that an option (Don't Care), but thought otherwise.

I should mention that the current estimate of the age of the Universe is 13.8bn years, but that this estimate based on the apparent measured expansion rate of the Universe is subject to some change as we gradually measure that expansion more and more accurately, and could even potentially change quite a lot if there are flaws in the ways it's being measured. So, it's not a firm fact, but instead it's a best estimate so far. The estimate 30 years from now (if this world continues) might be for instance 13.8bn, 14.1bn, 12.8bn, or some other number, even potentially a larger change. For that reason while I voted the 13.77bn age, it's not what I'd actually say, but was only near.

When God said "Let there be Light".

When God said "Let there be Light".

When ≠ What Year

Joe: What year was your sister born?
Schmo: The year mom had her.

In short, I'm looking for a number.

Devolution started around 6-10K B.C.

Joe: What year was your sister born?

That would be year pre-Zero.

 

[AV1611VET]

That would be year pre-Zero.

What's the confusion?

Evolution started the instant of the Big Bang. That would be before time, or any counting of years.

Or, putting on my Lover of God hat, the instant God said, "Let there be Light". Which was also before the counting of time or year. Thus, Evolution began in that instant before time. Year pre-time.

Well my friend I want to say evolution really isn’t the truth.The truth lies in Genesis,Every creature,beast,and crawling thing on earth was created by Gods almighty hands.Plus If you think very very hard,an empty vast nothing-void can’t create anything.When I say empty I mean exactly that; empty (no molecules,matter,light,sound,temperature,gravity,zero-Gravity,pressure) literally the space for any matter to exist in wasnt even there,and starting with this nothing cannot,again CANNOT create something,there HAS to be an eternal cause.For crying out loud the recently launched James Webb telescope proved hawkings theory of the Big Bang(which he stole from and profited off of the Good Dutch Christian Georges Lemaître) WRONG.Not even that but if a massive explosion did happen,no life would exist because non living matter cannot become animate and grow limbs and crawl out of water over billions of years.I as a Christian can’t even wrap my head around the concept that monkeys became humans.It makes no sense.

My dearest friend I say this because Our answer lies in Genesis,the Lords word is true and breathed.He can be trusted, and we also are warned about having wisdom from him and the world,this is known as double-mindedness as our brother James once told us in his account in the Bible.My answer is Other,and that other is Genesis.

Okay, thanks.

Now HERE'S a winning post!

Except I answered 4004 BC, as I like to use Usher's dates in my discussions.

I'm of the opinion that there was never a beginning.

This question is as meaningless as: 'When did change start?'

This question is as meaningless as: 'When did change start?'

Depending on how it's answered, one can give what appears to be a meaningless question a meaningful point.

What year did evolution start?

Year 0.
Year 64,365.
Year 4,967,368.

All are correct, and at the same time all are completely meaningless. A typical AV challenge.

Wow! Do you grade science papers?

If so, you must have a lot of friends!
