That would be the Big Bang Theory. Basically a chemical chain reaction that is still going on today.

Same answer as for your previous question.
Chains of molecules (based on carbon) acquired the capability of replicating themselves by attracting similar molecules from the environment. They were the first "replicators". (Some crystals grow and multiply in a similar, simpler way).
As some chain combinations started multiplying, small variations made some combinations more successful than others, thus starting the evolutionary process.
Does that exclude God? Not at all, He is the one who made the rules for his creation to take place. Evolution is just one of such rules.

even if someone believes God created the soup that managed to develop the linking genetics to reproduce into bacteria...it could be that the general chemistry and physic of the universe are capable of producing life in any place as long as the ideal conditions exist....you could say that soil bacteria (or it's chromosomal residue) developing in one place could, in the destruction of planets, be seeded into other locations...You could say that God made the universe as a functioning machine to be capable of producing life....no one knows. I think it is fine to have a belief in God, but this belief should be flexible...if a scientific revelation reveals something to shatter someone's faith, then I don't think they really had faith to begin with

Not only did this first cell "spontaneously" appear, it had to get something to eat and then reproduce fast. Any cell that didn't reproduce quick was extinct before it got started.

"Got lucky?" Someone doesn't know their evolution, or equates "follows natural consequences due to laws of chemistry and physics" as lucky!

You're talking about a "theory" of evolution. I believe that God the Creator made everything from the tiniest cell to the entire galaxy & beyond. Check out http://www.gotquestions.org
