Answer:God did it
Now wasn't that easy?
Funny, that is how the faithful often see science. The easy answer with no responsibilities or accountability. Of course, God provided those answers a long time before science did - come to think of it, science has no answer regarding how we got here. Just God. That makes it the only possible answer doesn't it.
