Tell me where the stuff that distilled into pond scum that turned into utterly complex living creatures (all by accident)come from? (violates the law of entropy, no?)
Yeah, I know, the big bang, prime atom, etc etc etc, but where did they come from? If you say there was a precursor to the precursor I'll still ask “and where did that come from”? (violates the law of conservation of energy, no?)
Actions require an Actor. His name is Jesus Christ, the great I AM. My faith is much less difficult to enter into than yours-yours being accidental and all; mine being deliberate and an act of love.
He created-yes, out of an unfathomable ability compared to what we know as mankind. It is the only answer to origins that satisfies me. I am valuable-a specially crafted person; not an accident, worth only my weight in cheap chemicals, life is much much more than that!
Ridicule now if you must. I can take the heat!

If you can believe that God (Perfection Personified, if you will) came out of nowhere, I really don’t think it’s more of a stretch to imagine that an inert blob came out of nowhere and eventually evolved into the universe (and all its living critters) we see today. Science is getting much closer to discovering the relatively simple processes by which life began:
