....has nothing to with evolution. I guess you're talking
about cosmology, right?

Few sciences have advanced as much in the last couple
decades as cosmology. Your quotes are all pre-WMAP,
and most are pre-COBE, so debating them makes about
as much sense as discussing E&M entirely in terms
of things said by Faraday and Joseph Henry.

"And no element abundance prediction of the big bang was successful
without some ad hoc parameterization to 'adjust' predictions that
otherwise would have been judged as failures." Van Flandern, p. 33.

"It is commonly supposed that the so-called primordial abundances of
D, 3He, and 4He and 7Li provide strong evidence for Big Bang
cosmology. But a particular value for the baryon-to-photon ratio needs
to be assumed ad hoc to obtain the required abundances." H. C. Arp et
al., "The Extragalactic Universe: An Alternative View," Nature, Vol.
346, 30 August 1990, p. 811.

"The study of historical data shows that over the years predictions of
the ratio of helium to hydrogen in a BB [big bang] universe have been
repeatedly adjusted to agree with the latest available estimates of
that ratio as observed in the real universe. The estimated ratio is
dependent on a ratio of baryons to photons (the baryon number) that
has also been arbitrarily adjusted to agree with the currently
established helium to hydrogen ratio. These appear to have not been
predictions, but merely adjustments of theory ('retrodictions') to
accommodate current data." Mitchell, p. 7.
