who created the biological process?

Same way we'd have gotten here if I did believe in God.
The "god" thing doesn't explain anything at all.

Biological Processes.

No matter how well anyone explains the process following the big bang, the primordial soup, the origins of species, natural progression and evolution, you would still argue that it was all gods work even though your theory is from stories that started thousands of years ago by people that were mostly uneducated and susceptible to any story about a superior being, up till then people used to worship many different gods and even the sun, human sacrifices were common because they believed their gods would give them good crops or sons instead of daughters, I could go on but there is no point you will carry on blindly accepting the brainwashing you are getting, what a waste of emotion and time you have in your life.

Some fundie said that since life does not spontaneously errupt in a jar of peanut butter then it could not have happened in any other way. In 1957 - some one will get the details right if I miss one - a biology student named Stanely Loyd did an experiment with a closed volumn of methene, one of the most common elements in the universe, and an electric spark. And in a couple of weeks he created amino acids, the basic building blocks of life. Dozens of people since then have duplicated his experiment and added many of the other elements that would have been around at the beginning of the earth, hydrogen, carbon, argon, the heat input of volcanic activity, and they all "created life" or the building blocks of life. If you multiply that untold trillions of times in what would habe been our biosphere and extended it over billions of years you would get re-combinate amino acids and eventually dna and then life. For DNA you only need 4 different elements and they are relatively few molecules each. It wasn't peanut butter.

Knowing how we got here, contributes nothing to our life. It doesn't add to our life's value, or take away from our life's value.
I'm reminded of a story that I read while studying buddhism. (I am not a buddhist, I am an atheist).
Once a man demanded that the Buddha tell him how the universe began. The Buddha said to him "You are like a man who has been shot with a poison arrow and who, when the doctor comes to remove it, says, "Wait! Before the arrow is removed I want to know the name of the man who shot it, what clan he comes from, which village he was born in. I want to know what type of wood his bow is made from, what feathers are on the end of the arrow, how long the arrows are, etc, etc". That man would die before all these questions could be answered. My job is to help you to remove the arrow of suffering from yourself' (Majjhima Nikaya Sutta No. 63, paraphrased).
Concentrate on helping to solve practical problems of living. Do not bother yourself with useless speculation.
And if you want to know how and when the universe or life began, ask a scientist!

Lots of very learned men have written extremely large and complicated, and well verified theories on this subject.
A couple goatherders wrote "goddidit" shortly after they discovered how to make paper and inks.
I'm guessing you trust the words of the goatherders.
I'll stick to peer-reviewed science, for myself.
Remember, neither of these groups speaks for a god. You're trusting the words of men, either way.

The possibilities of how we got here are infinite. Just because I cannot tell you for certain exactly how we got here does not mean that I or anyone else should accept your fairy tale explanation of creation. This argument is known as appeal to ignorance.

I do not know. Shall we go with the 1st theory on this then from 2000 years ago? The one that ties up all the loose ends and promises eternal life...

I'm afraid it's too complicated to explain to you. I could point you to lots of scientific data, but you wouldn't get it.
Don't worry, though: it's all understood by the people who know about such things.

ps: You seem to have some strange notion that everything requires someone to do things. Wrong. Some things happen by themselves.
