"I don't accept theories that claim evolution explains the origin of life on Earth, nor the origin of the Universe."
This is not the area covered by the theory of evolution. Evolution concerns descent of life over time. Much evidence shows that the various life forms on this planet have changed over time. Evolution posits that these changes occurred as one living creature was born from another living creature over that long time period.
That's all. It is completely silent on the origin of life. It is, of course, also silent on the origin or the Universe, which is the subject of astrophysics, not biology.
