One may investigate empirically the origin of our universe, of life on earth and of the human species. One may also study empirically the evolution of the universe, life and mankind. These six enormous tasks being (very provisionally) undertaken, one may compare the three types of origin and the three types of evolution. Do they exhibit strong similarities or are they, to the contrary, radically different?

I think while they are essentially different the 'origins' are obviously intrinsic to the 'evolutionary' aspects of universe/life, with the exception of human origin/evolution ('cos obviously the appearance of humans, as science would have it, came about as a result of the evolution of 'lower' life forms). So the human aspects of the origin/evolution equation are essentially the same, albeit that the latter is a continuation of the former initial process.
The origin of the universe & life on earth are i think radically different in terms of theoretical hypotheses concerning each, although as before one obviously leads on to the other. In this sense the studies surrounding them have little if any common themes so although they are intrinsically linked they are, somewhat paradoxically, very different.
Thanks for the band names by the way, they are fucking awesome
