The theory of evolution can't be applied to anything smaller than a virus. Can you apply it to life just below the conventionally accepted threshold of life? Can you apply it to, say, water, air, and other supposedly non-living matter?
I propose an extension to Darwin's theory of evolution. Call it a theory of pre-evolution. After all, in the beginning was nothing but clouds of helium and hydrogen, which compressed into different heavier molecules and made the world we live in. And those heavier molecules formed amino acids - the building blocks of life, we call them. But weren't the real building blocks atoms of hydrogen? And what sort of evolution caused hydrogen atoms to form life?
