This is not true necessarily. It's more like, assuming the material world is real, it can explain life, through this and that all the way to evolution. Since the material world hypothesis is supported by evidence, and there is nothing to falsify it, it's a reasonable theory. There is no evidence to suggest that it's false, therefore there is no reason to assume there must be a Creator.
At if physical evidence proves a Creator, it doesn't prove God.
Quote: I have no idea how we could assess whether a god was 'worthy' of worship, unless it came down and instructed me to worship it.
Why would you believe in this god that came down though? What if it was lying?
What about people whom this god never came down and instructed them to worship it?
