"I've always said...God created evolution."

So we humans are part of a continuum.
By your statement, I'm assuming your religious.
I'll also assume you're Christian. (although I could be wrong on this, and if so, I'm sorry)

If I'm correct in my assumptions, then at what point in this continuum is the cutoff for whom Christ saved? Homo erectus? Homo Sapien? Homo Sapien after a certain date? Or should we just toss this religious thing aside?

Most of these died before accepting Christ, so the question is moot.

Even those believers who make an ezception for righteous pagans put the cut off after "hearing the Word". So Jeffery Dahmer is "saved", and the Dali Lama is "unsaved"

Or should we just toss this religious thing aside?
Gets my vote.

Maybe homo erectus had his own erectus Christ?
For me the cutoff is the possibility of "sin".
But without sin you need no Christ.

That's a good point, too. Evolution is really quite incompatible with Biblical Christianity, hm?
