You can point to the fact that there's evidence that supports abiogenesis but it hasn't been proven. Just like christians and muslims can point to the bible or Koran and say that when Jesus comes back that God will show himself everyone will know that God is real. So really it just depends on what evidence satisfies you the most. Atheists will say that theists don't believe what they believe because they're illogical and theists will say that atheists don't believe what they believe because they don't have faith.
But I wonder what you think would be the most reasonable assumption in most situations? Do you always stop to consider that there may be a religious reason for natural phenomenon? Does the stream flow downhill because of gravity or could it be the will of god? Is evolution itself just a charade where God has actually stacked the deck to be sure a creature would evolve in His image? Why does the origin of life but not the origin of the universe require a cosmic hand - or do you think the big bang also bears God's signature?
