My astronomy textbook says that Evolution is inevitable?

My text book in astronomy says that evolution is inevitable when you have huge amounts of atoms, particles in a very very large universe.

Is that true?
Bear, you just said lots of blackholes. that's a lot of evolution isn't it?
Transitional species: it covers the entire universe?
Bear, what's the difference between inanimate objects and us?
 
I've no idea why your astronomy textbook is discussing biological evolution. If it is discussing evolution in any other context, it is merely using the word, but meaning something slightly different.

Evolution is NOT inevitable, even given the existence of life. Evolution is only inevitable given the existence of self-replicating life that produces imperfect copies of itself.
 
It depends on how suitable that universe is for life

If the big bang had happened only slightly differently, we would have a universe filled with black holes. No evolution there

EDIT: Inanimate matter does not evolve. Evolution refers to living organisms

EDIT: Because non organic matter does not reproduce. A photon will never change into something else, in how ever many years
