The argument from evolution is an argument against the existence of God, specifically against the existence of a creator God.

No. Many of us who acknowledge the sound science behind evolution also believe in God, a God ultimately responsible for all existence.

It is based upon the premise: Science provides sound explanations for the origin and diversity of life, and the origin of the Universe.

True. This does not imply our description of these phenomena are 100% complete, though. They are, however, tremendously successful in both their predictive nature and in providing a consistent framework describing life on earth. We do not know everything about the origin of the universe, or about the origin of life of on earth and its subsequent evolution, but we know a great deal.

Funny though, that the cartoon you repeatedly post, showing atoms turning into people, looks more like a parody of creationism than of evolution. Evolutionary science actually has thousands of explanatory links from a myriad of different lines of inquiry leading to a consistent model that couldn't possibly fit on a single diagram.

I don't know about the cartoon parodying creationism, if it does so what. But I used the cartoon as more about illustrating how very much is not known, and how yet how very much some insist what is known on evolution and cosmology. Science parodies itself these fields.

Take the theory of flight.
Bernoulli's Principle played not the role they thought, and the principle of equal transit times was flat out wrong and demonstrated clearly in any flight vehicle with smoke added. I guarantee you any aircraft designed with strict adherence to these faulty scientific concepts (in the theory of flight) would not fly, so they were not. Yet this theory of flight was stated as absolute as the theory of gravity for many years.

Newtonian theory of gravity contradicted Einstein's theory, Einstein's theory needs tied together with string theory ad infinitum.
