Really? So you're still a caveman, staring at the stars and feeling the need to explain everything you don't understand with some god. Well, most of us don't feel that need. The answer is, we don't know how everything came to be. But at the same time, looking back, we know a whole lot more than we knew some 5000 years ago. And in another 5000 years, humans will laugh at what we didn't understand.

But you go even further, don't you? It isn't just any god, you need as an explanation. It has to be the christian god. Which narrows the field and the horizon considerably.

Why do you place value upon your life?  Would it not be more efficient for matter to stay in its natural state?  It seems like a lot of work for matter to evolve from atoms to rocks to humans with a soul that place value upon their individual existence.  Wouldn't it be easier for our atoms to sit still and starve to death compared to cultivating the land and hunting animals for food?  If there is no creator and our lives and soul are completely meaningless then why don't we all just go jump off a bridge and avoid the inefficiencies of life?
