Your science teachers have let you down, and from looking at the rest of the answers tonight, their science teachers let them down too. Science isn't about randomly guessing what the right answer is. It's not about a group of people voting to decide what is right or wrong. Science is a way of explaining how things work by using measurable evidence.
Scienists have created a foundation of laws by which all the rest of science is built upon. These laws are a set of observations of the natural world that are repeatable no matter where you are. A few examples of these laws are: Gravity pulls things down. The physical world is made of atoms. Energy can be neither created nor destroyed.
These observations were made by gathering data, by repeating experiments and always coming up with the same answer. There are rules to the experiments as well, such as the answer needs to be a measurable quantity, the answer must fit the theory, the answer must be consistent with the other laws.
Science uses these known laws to try to explain how more of the unknown universe works. It's rules state that scientists can only use measurable, provable data to explain how things work. This is the very nature of science.
A science class is trying to teach you how to look at the universe using the scientific method. It is one perspective that I feel provides the best and most coherent explanation because it requires measurable proof.
You can decide on your own what you think the right answer is, but you must understand that your science teacher is trying to explain to you how a scientist observes the universe using the scientific method.

God is a supernatural being who exists outside of time and space. He made everything that exists. Logically, there shouldn't be anything in this universe because something has to come from something else. Something doesn't come from nothing. Saying that the universe came about when there was a "big bang" sounds a lot like the creation story from the Bible.
Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. 3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

The question you must ask is where did the dust particles come from or how did the dust particles came into existence?
Nothing can turn into something without a God.
On the other hand, people may say "where did God come from?"
We exist in a world that has time. Everything in this world because of time must have a beginning and an end including time itself. Our lives has a beginnig and an end, from the day we are born to the day we die.
God exist outside of time, therefore he doesn't have a beginning and an end, which is why we can say only God can had always existed.
Everything that has a beginning must have something to start it. Time has a beginning and the only person who can start it is God.
Because God doesn't have a beginning, he doesn't need anything to start him.
Time will come to an end when Jesus returns.

Lets put it this way, it is absolutely true that God had created everything. It is us, the human being putting names onto the creation of God. Science is the studies of the formation of this nature. Even Science won't be able to prove some mysteried knowledge in which only God knows. Simply means Science can never be above God. God is not going to tell us everything, like how the God looks like, how the God create the universe...
there are so many questions that even science won't be able to
answer, God had created our brain to reach knowledge to a certain extend, we can only imagine how great God's divine power is. Never denied that science had discovered the formation of most creations are made up of particles, meaning
human made the studies and found out most of the creations of God are made up of particles.

Its not really confusing if you think hard, can you imagine a truck or bus building itself, even if you gave it a billion years? thats evolution, even if you try to convince a scientist that a truck could evolve he would call you foolish, but then he would call you foolish if you say that man or other animals which are much more complex ( and the entire complexity of which science still does not have knowledge of ) were created. The truck is created and according to me it would be logical enough to believe that man was also created, people think that those who don't believe in evolution are foolish, but its not true.

Well... you will have to hear more evidence before you make up your mind. But here is my take on the subject. God created the science that that formed the earth. In other words, he made the dust that got together billions of years ago that formed the universe. Yes the scriptures say God created the earth in one day. Well... if you think about it, a day in the existence of God could easily be a few billion years to us humans.
Sadly, few clergy will accept this point of view, as will few scientists! I find it easier to just not argue the point with such closed minded people, I state my opinion and leave it at that.

God created everything. The creation includes each components as well as its functionalty and its role in the total system.
What stated in the Bible concerning this does match science so God created the components and made it reach to create the big bang story.
Your confusion is respected and can be modeled by the following way of thinking" Computers do the calculations". This is a fact accpted by science, yet religion owe the calculations to the made who made the computers and to God who created the man and the components that were feasible to work together to build the computer:)

science used to explain God. like the carbon 14 found in diamonds and coal, carbon 14 can only exist for 11,460 (+/- 40 years) so any sample with that in it cannot be the millions of years evolution says. a living mollusk was carbon dated and was dated at being dead for 3,000 years. the tissue found in a thigh bone of a dinosaur fossil, it wasnt all fossilized, and of course instead of admitting they were wrong about the age of the earth, they covered up and said we are wrong about red blood cells (even creationists are surprised by this, red blood cells are good in a sealed environment for 5,000 years or so.) moon dust, tond of cosmic dust falls on earth each day, NASA originally was afraid the lunar lander would sink into the many feet of dust believed to be on the moon, it was measured at only 1/8 of an inch, indicating a young moon. the earths magnetism, 8000 years ago, the magnetism of earth would have been that of a magnetic star, a highly unlikely occurance. also if electric currents in the earths core are responsible for the earths magnetic field, the heat generated by these currents 20,000 years ago would have dissolved the earth. evolutionists like to say that the fossil fuels we find today however objects must be buried rapidly in order to fossilize. the fact that the billions of fossils and fossil fuels are evidence of a catastrophic event (aka noahs flood.) oil can now be made in a labratory in a few minutes, black coal in an amazingly short time, we also have a miners hat that is only 50 years old that is completely rock. lets finally take the sun, at its rate of decay, 5 feet per hour, at this rate life could not have existed even 100,000 years ago.

It can be easily proved that there is an invisible world surrounding us without which this visible world would be incomplete. Just think of all the waves - radio, tv, radiation etc that surround us. Look at gravity. It can't be seen but we come to the logical conclusion that it must exist. It's existence is necessary for this material world. This material world needs and depends on the invisible world. We need gravity in order to exist. This is just one example. Now the premise that the world is the result of billions and billions of evolution is correct. But evolution needs a force or engine behind it to evolve towards perfection. It can be easily demonstrated that natural selection and hazard do not force evolution towards perfection. Where you see order there has to be an input of energy.

Scientists will say that there is an order to things and that God did not create the universe. Well hello, if there is order, then that points to an orderer, or a God. Higher level science is quickly moving toward the direction of God. There is no other explanation even to the worlds top scientists as to how the universe was created. Check out the site www.reasonstobelieve.org for some extremely relevant scientific/Christian information. Also the book, "Icons of Evolution". Good luck!
