I do have some questions to present on this however.
If there's an all powerful, all knowing god. Why would he choose the big bang to create universe? Why wouldn't he simply speak it into existence, why would this path, the long, difficult not even guaranteed way of creating life be the one he takes? This presents more questions, is god truly all powerful and in control of the entire universe? If he is then this makes no sense. And why would Earth be the ONLY planet that he chooses to rule over? Humans were created in his image according to the bible, if we were created; rather than randomly created by the big bang then how are we TRULY made in his image? What about the other planets in the entire universe? We can't truly be alone, and if we aren't then the other sentient species can't be created in his image. Why would god make a favored race in the design of humanity? It makes no sense.
What this really boils down to, is why would god use a method of creation that wasn't even guaranteed to be a success? And why, of all the things created in the universe are WE the only ones gifted with being in his image (If we were created by chance in the first place.) And even if we're the only planet with sentient life, why Earth in the milky way galaxy out of everything out there are we the only planet he cares about?
