Unless you really really have to have a God that was involved in our origins

God Himself made life the way we know it. However He Himself is life and He forever has been. As far as Evolution... If you would buy into that you simply would have to answer the question, "as far back as you could go were did the first spec of life come from?" your answer will have to be from dead matter. Evolution is such bogus Crap. According to the laws of Genetics wouldn't a woman (if we came from primates) HAVE to have a monkey at least once? Oh know that was so long ago that.... No there would still need to be one, come on people 6 billion people on the face of the Earth and not one instance of anything ever popping out of there except a man? It is not hard to see that we could not evolve to were we are now, the Earth and all of its different systems did not just happen, cells cannot just become other kinds of cells, we cannot and do not become other species. Do you think that in 50 million years man will become "birds"? You are fearfully and wonderfully made. God Himself made it all.

One of the biggest problems with evolution as the origin of our species is that it is as much a religion as science. Evolutionists seem to exclude any research that doesn't agree with their beliefs.
There is no conclusive evidence of any species evolving from another species. The only way for evolution to become fact rather than theory, is for the fossil record to show clear exaples of every stage and generation of development from one species to another. So far, every fossil ever found has been classified as its own species.
Even the fossil record would be questionable, because some species vary widely in variety. Take the family dog, for example. You have everything from giant breeds, such as Great Danes, to Chihuahuas. But they all fall under the species "canis familiaris."
The only evidence of evolution at all is the change in physical traits within a species. One examle given in my old middle school science book was of the same species of finch in different parts of the world who had different beak charactaristics, adapted to their geographically limited food sources. But even these two varieties are the same species.
So no, evolution is not "the best scientific answer." In fact, the only practical way of explaining the beginning of everything is creationism, because it is the only theory that allows for the creation of something out of nothing. Evolution requires that some life form was there at the beginning to change into other species. But where did that life come from?

It provides some clues, as does theology. I don't think that evolution can stand without theology, but Genesis was not intended as a history book either. There were many things not recorded in Genesis, including the Gap Theory (which I find probable). But I see Darwin's origin of species to be severely lacking as well, since all life would have to come from the improbable combination of hydrochloric acid, methane and ammonia sparked off by an electric charge of unknownn origin, unknow voltage/current and unknown frequency.

Absent of any Theology, yes, Evolution and Big Bang are best Scientific explanations.

I agree with nicerrdude. If we don't consider theological aspects of the origins of life, evolution is the best scientific answer to date.

Evolution isn't a scientific answer.. It's a theory.

Evolution has nothing whatsoever to do with where life came from. It is a biological science that deals with changes in the genetic makeup of populations of organisms, over time.
Abiogenesis has to do with theories pertaining to the origins of life. It is more closely related to organic chemistry than to biology.

There is no scientific answer. That is why so many people find it necessary to make things up.

evolution does not explain the irreducable compexity of life
nor the sourse ofthe original information randome processes do not cause information to arise such as DNA you would nbeed the CD rom and the thing to read the CD ROM and the things to act on it and to reproduce... it goes on and on.... so no.. it was created

The only problem I have with the evolution concept is if we evoled from apes, why are there still apes.
