In that regard, evolution is like a lot of other sound scientific theories. Biologists who study and write about evolution don't claim that the theory explains everything.
It is the height of arrogance, IMHO, to reject the theory of evolution because it fails to explain the entire origin of the universe. I'm not a dumb person, but I do not presume to think that my brain is powerful enough to figure everything out and I do not look upon my inability to figure out how the universe got to this point as evidence that there is anything wrong with the hard work of several generations of biologists who believe that evolution is a sound theory.
