A while ago, a fellow forum user started the most absurd thread that is still going on today in which he or she compared the Genesis account of creation with Darwin's macro evolution "myth".
Now, benighted fools like Bill O' Reilly ask this stupid question again and again: How did it all get there? They ask this because of their religious foundational bias in which they are looking entirely through biblical lenses, which is inconsistent with the Scientific Method. They think that everything has to have an intelligent mind to create it, which is simply illogical. We see many things in life that do not require an intelligent mind to create, such as trees, organisms, rain, snow, and many other examples. Human beings evolved from sperm cells and egg cells. Creationists probably ask "well, how did the sperm cells and egg cells get there?". Let's take a look at this video of the very-ignorant Bill O' Reilly.

My favorite part is in 1:10 where he asks if human life is all just luck. Well, yes it is just luck. If Homo Erectus and Australopithecines never left Africa and reproduced, then no, human beings would never have evolved.
Creationists also never acknowledge that the Genesis creation story is both objectively false and downright ludicrous. It claims that God created humans the way they look today over the period of six days, when in fact transitional fossils prove that humans evolved from Homo Erectus, Homo Hominids, Australopithecines, and other Homo Sapiens over the course of millions of years. Genesis also claims God created blooming vegetation and man to tend to it over the period of six days. When in fact humans did not discover vegetation and agriculture until the Agricultural Revolution. Noah's Ark is nothing short of a joke. It claims 32,000 animal species were transported on a man-made boat made out of sticks, and sailed by less than ten people. Not only did that writer plagiarize that story from the Epic of Gilgamesh, there is also no geological evidence that a global flood ever occurred or is even possible. Creationists say "well, life can't just happen". Well....but God can create life out of nothing?
Come one, let's be critical thinkers here.
