Sorry, I can’t let you get away with this statement since it is utterly meaningless. How do you determine what is more plausible? What are your probability denominator and numerator values?
Evolution is a well known mechanism that preserves useful traits. Evolution has had so much coroborating evidence that it is considered fact.

As social behaviour is a useful trait it would tend to have imparted survival value and therefore evolution would have favoured the more social creatures.
Chances evolution is responsible 99.99999999%
This is versus the other "explanation" that a magic man that there is no proof for did it.
Chances an impossible magic man did it 0%
Chances its all part of a vastly complex computer game with programmed rules. o.000000001%
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
