Fossils of single celled life has been discovered that dates 3.5 billion + years back. That backs up the claim that they have been evolving for at least 3.5 billion years.
You and other fans know the evolutionary storyline goes: organism A evolved into organism B which evolved into organism C, etc. and then eventually you get humans (put them on sidelines in the "lineages" and "trees" all you want, the original storylines always pop up every now and then and even putting them on sidelines doesn't negate the fact that the lines representing all these organisms and this pattern are still drawn in the pictures of these "lineages" and "trees"). There's no need to oversimplify this even more. At this point, it becomes willfull or feigned ignorance that you made a boo-boo.
Perhaps you meant something else, that it's evidence that they existed 3.5 billion years ago. Rather than evolved for 3.5 billion years.

Looks to me like you already figured out what you think, you just want us to agree. But I'm still very perplexed about why gender means intelligent design.

And Evolution could have ended before it began but apparently keeps on going........WHY
WHY - Why does a biological life form exist at all? - If the Universe is nothing but a group of chemical and physical
interactions with no raison d'etre biological life is an anomaly and all Evolution is part of this anomaly
Evolution is as weak as Creationism in explaining its existent state

the mechanisms are fully known for evolution

Still confusing evolution with abiogenesis and the development of proteins I see.
It was completely wrong because we understand the mechanisms.

The creation of muscle tissue is an issue with evolution, not abiogenesis. You're just trying to avoid the question because there is no answer. Your theory is faith-based, not science-based.
These numb skulls [my opinion] can not accept the existence of either intelligence or design
- To them all that exist must be distillable fo a formula that can be written down
- The reality that exists for them is pure fantasy - much more of a fantasy than the wildest imaginations of Creationist.
Fanatical Atheism threatens the future more so than the fanatical theists who have also contributed to the numb skull phenomenon that has driven much of Human history
Same with Evolution - The day they can define it in an absolute sense is the day it ends.
I bet on intelligence over stupidity

It's not an issue in the slightest. You just don't like the explanation.

I wonder how many times I have to copy my computer games for the code to get enough errors to magically give me better graphics. Maybe we'll even get a distinction between male and female games so that the graphics can improve faster when they both run at the same time.

The correct answer is "we have no idea how it happened, our beliefs are therefore based on faith"
