It stretches credulity to think it could have come about by time and chance.Yet it does not stretch credulity to think that a Supreme Being just exists? A Supreme Being who possesses the complexity to design/create wonderous things like DNA and RNA?
One of the basic questions of childhood is, "Where did God come from?" I have yet to come across an explanation that does not also fit the natural universe.

Einstein observed that he had a "humble admiration of the illimitable superior Spirit who reveals Himself in the slight details we're able to perceive with our frail and feeble minds."
Form, function, purpose, design are hallmarks of a creator. It seems implausible that we should believe that something exponentially more complex than a watch (to use the old but pertinent analogy) could come into existence due to mindless natural causes. It seems more reasonable to believe that there is a mind, an intelligence, a creator.
Where did God come from? A God with the power to create the known universe is beyond our comprehension. Kalam's argument says that everything with a beginning had a beginner. Scripture reveals God to be infinite, without a beginning. It is outside our experience.
