Any claim about our origins or purpose is an extraordinary claim. That includes the theory of evolution.

There would have to be undeniable evidence that the origins of the universe are as described by evolutionary scientists. There is no such evidence. There will always be those in favor of a anti God theory of life. There always have been. And there will always be those with with a pro God theory of life. There always have been. But one thing that cannot be debated is that everything that exists in the physical universe has to have had a first cause. There is no getting around that.

of course there is. there is getting around everything.

we don't know dick about the origins of the universe or the origins of life. we don't know how time works, either. our entire planet is smaller than a grain of sand in the grand scheme of the universe, which we date to ~14 billion years. we're infinitesimal, and we've been here for an infinitesimal period of time. modern science has existed for what? less than 100 years? lol. we can't rule out anything at all.

we haven't even managed to get humans to the nearest planet. we haven't even discovered every type of life form on our own planet. hell, we don't even know all the details of what our own brains do.

we're ignorant as fuck. believing in a deity is no more absurd than believing anything else. we could all be a part of an elaborate computer simulation. or worse, we could all be a part of a really simple computer simulation.

believe what you want. people who try to convince you otherwise are ignorant of their own ignorance
