The evolution of life was pre-ordained by the fact that over time all matter in the universe tends towards ever greater complexity and organization. What is the difference between “Let there be light “and the “Big Bang?” Not one damned thing. God created the universe with an intrinsic design for life to inevitably rise wherever conditions were favorable. Who knows, there may be regions of the stars where lifeforms undreamed of thrive.
I think there is this difference: the one view says God made man on purpose; the other says rocks can turn into people if you just leave them alone for long enough.
