What is the evidence outside of the the tendency of creationists to marvel at the world and simply tell themselves,
    "God must have done this."
 
As opposed to the tendency of Evolutionists to gaze at the world and simply tell themselves,
    "Chance must have done this."

Which is not something evolutionists say. Indeed, it is the quest to understand the underlying mechanisms that lead to life-as-we-know-it that was the genesis of the theory of evolution (which has nothing to do with chance, by the way).

As one with an Ecology and Evolutionary Biology BS, I have never told myself that. I, too, marvel at the world and it's beautiful intracacies and interplay. It IS wondrous and complicated and endlessly fascinating. However, your misguided ideas of how "evolutionists" (thank you, thank you thank you for not referring to "us" as "Darwinists") think is only damaging in your own head.
