It gets a little old seeing so many evolution theologians (it is a religion), say that the parts that cannot be substantiated by empirical evidence [cosmology, stellar formation, abiogenesis] are 'not part of the evolution theory.'

No God(s):Not a religion
Evolution has to do with the adaptive and spuratic changes in life. Only creationist try to link it to other sciences.
Theology is the study of religion. Yours has been heavily studied and found wanting in all areas. Did you know hebrew scholars think the whole story of Moses never happened? No proof at all.
The formation of stars and the origins of life on this planet are whole 'nother sciences. Asking an evolutionary biologist to know all about that is like asking your dentist why your appendix is still giving you pain, or asking your pharmacist to fix the washing machine.
Evolution is what happened to those organisms later.
There's nothing more annoying than when auto mechanics attempt to deny that astrology, seismology and the culinary arts are a part of their field. Just admit it, Bill: internal combustion can't account for why sometimes the chicken burns & sometimes it doesn't even though I cook it at the same heat every time or why earthquakes are stronger when Uranus is in Capricorn, therefore there's no such thing as automobiles. No one ever observed a car on a road in the real world. Those freaks in the automotive engineers' crash test labs don't count.
It's not religion, it's biology.
They're not part of evolution theory, the two first are not even part of biology.
As evolution is adaptation of existing life, abiogenesis is not part of evolution, either.
It gets a little old trying to make you fundies understand basic fourth-grade knowledge.
Nebraska man. That’s a funny name for a creationist.
ONE mistake. That didn’t make it into the textbooks because other scientists caught the mistake.
And the ‘mistake’ was published.
So the only way creationists KNOW there was a mistake made is that scientists did their job and were honest.
Lord knows, creationists didn’t catch it.
They also didn’t catch that Piltdown Man was a hoax.
This loginID just highlights that Creationists really have bupkes. The ONLY thing they can offer is holes in evolutionary theory, and mistakes, and quote mining inadvisable wording in textbooks. They’d have NOTHING AT ALL if it weren’t for the very science they’re trying to discredit.
About on par with a Catholic using the login of ‘coverup.’
“It gets a little old seeing so many evolution theologians (it is a religion),”
::Yawn.:: Talk about old. Keep flogging this mistake while evolution continues on strongly.
"say that the parts that cannot be substantiated by empirical evidence [cosmology, stellar formation, abiogenesis] are 'not part of the evolution theory.'”
That’s because you think the connotations you add to the theory are PARTS of the theory. They’re not. Evolution is strictly limited to the biology as it changes over time. by the actions of the imperfect replicator of sexual/asexual reproduction.
Deal with it, or continue to show your ass when you try to talk about the science.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
