The evidence is all around you. The evidence is you, yourself. There are only 2 choices, that all things accidently came to be or they came to be out of deliberate intent, which requires the intelligent designer. Life is much more complex than anything we create yet we are intended to believe life just happened. Might as well look at a computer or an automobile or a picnic table and believe any of these things could have just happened.

Yes, indeed, evidence is all around me that we exist.
Evolution, Abiogenesis, The Big Bang are all scientific theories regarding it.
Creationism, ID, religion, are faith based Dogmas that try to explain it,
So,we have a scientific explanation, and a religious one.
That is the difference, one is science, and one is religion.
Scientific explanations should be taught in a science class, religious explanations should be taught in a church or possibly philosophy class.

What about another choice; "things" were an accident of the Designer? That would actually make more sense, as it would give the Designer some leeway and a decent excuse for all His screw-ups, of which there are hundreds of thousands.

This comparison would only apply if computers, automobiles, and picnic tables happened to be living organic organisms. To my knowledge, they are not.

Life is much more complex than anything we create yet we are intended to believe life just happened. Maybe we should just wait 200 years. By then we'll have created far more complex things, and then by your logic it'll be OK to assume life evolved.

The oldest person in the world died yesterday in Japan. Was her death an accident, or was she murdered?
