For starters, evolution and the big bang have nothing to do with each other. And evolution does not explain how life first appeared on earth. It explained how it evolved.
What you are doing is using people's ignorance for room to bargain. The fact that science doesn't answer everything, does not lead to a divine answer.
Again, (why don't you people get it) its like that movie the God's must be crazy. A pilot throws a coke bottle from a plane and it drops in front an african native. Since the african native have no knowledge of boke bottles he said its a gift from God. If you laughed at that explanation, would you find it difficult to imagine another life form with superior knowledge laughing at you now because of your crazy conclusions?
Science is honest about what it does not know. But its efforts are directed at finding it out. Are you?

Your question shows that you do not understand probability theory OR evolution. It assumes that the science of evolution claims that atoms simply fell together at random and poof! a cell appeared, like the proverbial watch parts rolling around in a clothes dryer and falling together to create a watch.
That is NOT what the science of evolution says. It is a straw-man argument put forth by those, like you, who wish to discredit science in favor of religion, and who do not understand math or science.
My guess is that you are parroting something you read in a book from the Bible bookstore, or heard a televangelist say, or learned in your church. You certainly did not learn that in a science or a mathematics class.
I don't want to change your mind, and am not trying to. You can believe whatever you want, so long as you don't try forcing your religious beliefs on others by lobbying for laws which would require mythology (religious creationism) to masquerade as science in public schools.
And evolution DOES explain how life on earth began, as complex molecules formed, joined together to make amino acids, which eventually became complex enough to divide and self-replicate, and continued becoming more and more complex over billions of years (not 6,000 years). This is called abiogenesis, or creation of life from non-living elements and molecules.
If you really want to learn, and I truly doubt that you do, you can find out what the science of evolution REALLY says by doing a very little research.

You're almost there, Myhalo! Now all you need to understand is that as evolution occurs within a species, caused by mutations in genes between generations, some groups of that species can become so different from the "parent" species that they can no longer reproduce with the original group. When this happens, a new species is born. Darwin observed this among finches. And scientists have created new species of fruit flies in the lab in as few as 8 generations.
Evolution is both fact and theory. Fact: we know that evolution happened/happens. Theory: while we already know a great deal about how it occurs, we still have much to learn as well.

The Big Bang was not caused by the collision of two atoms. You are clearly ignorant of Big Bang theory.
Evolution does not describe how life begins, that's abiogenesis. You are clearly ignorant of Evolution and Abiogenesis.
That mathematical probability is based on a modern cell springing into being fully formed, not on any known principle of science nor is that conjectured by any field of science as the method by which cells first began. You are clearly ignorant of fundamental statistics.
Try harder.

At least evolutionists know that the evolution and the big bang theory are two different things that have nothing to do with each other. I suggest you learn at least the basics about things before you criticize them or try to disprove them. You only make an idiot out of yourself if you don't, like you did now.

And you know this how?
Unless you know of the exact mechanisms involved, you are simply making numbers up. And given that I've never heard an evolutionist claim to know the exact mechanisms involved, either you're keeping a big secret or...
well, I'm sure it's pretty obvious or what.

You're right.
But science does not answer metaphysical questions. It is a common mistake to assume that science fundamentally denies a metaphysical reality. Science is simply not interested in those questions (Just as mathematics is not interested in questions of grammar - it doesn't mean all mathematicians disdain grammar).
However, the inquiry of science is limited to what can be observed. The final cause you are asking about can not be observed. It is therefore outside the realm of science.

Again, we see that those who reject science know nothing about it.
Read up on the big bang; if you have questions, ask them in the proper category.
Evolution cannot explain abiogenesis. Wow! Meteorology cannot explain semiconductors, so it must be false, right?
And I repeat.... who claimed a single cell came about by chance?
Either you don't understand these points, or you keep lying for your religion; would your god approve if he existed?

Evolution has nothing to do with how life began. Just how it has changed over time.
What you are chatting rubbish about above is not evolution.

Its the same as arguing....where does god come from?
People who are humbled by the idea of creation know theyre not Godly enough to know all the answers!
The universe is a big place!
