Kerkut defined the [[General Theory of Evolution]] as "the theory that all the living forms in the world have arisen from a single source which itself came from an inorganic form"<ref>''Implications of Evolution'', p. 157, by Kerkut, G.A., quoted in [http://www.creationontheweb.com/content/view/1627 Origin of life and the homochirality problem: is magnetochiral dichroism the solution?] by Jonathan Sarfati.</ref>

As stated, this includes the origin of life ([[abiogenesis]]), but evolutionists today generally reject that evolution includes [[abiogenesis]], as [[Natural selection]] can only operate once life has started.

As stated, this includes the origin of life ([[abiogenesis]]), but today, the origin of life from non-living compounds on the earth is generally refered to as Chemical Evolution.

Instead, it is defined as the development of life from some last universal common ancestor, from which all plants, animals, fungi, and other life on Earth are directly descended.

Biological Evolution is defined as the development of life from some last universal common ancestor, from which all plants, animals, fungi, and other life on Earth are directly descended.
