Before you can explain biological evolution, you have to explain celestial evolution. with that being the case, How did existence come from non-existence?

Your opening statement is flawed. that's like saying you must first understand the manufacturing process for making oreos before making an oreo pie. We understan evolution by looking at it on a genetic level. Yes, celestial evolution was necessary, but like the oreos, we don't need to know how it came to be to know how it works once it's there.

Evolution is not about how life or the universe arose. It only explains what the evidence tells us about life and how it changed since it did arise. It doesn't address the issue of how original life came to be and how it arose is immaterial and supplemental to the validity of the theory. Evolution is simply looking at the evidence we have and saying this is what evidence tells us about the changes life has undergone since its been present.
Where did God come from if existence must come from something? Or are you excepting God out of your requirement for logic here in order to have an answer for something mind blowing we don't have the answer for yet?

According to the Big Bang theory, there was at some point at the start of the Universe (they have no explanation before this point, or why it even happened), there was matter, and anti-matter, both annihilating each other until there was only matter left, then the universe expanded from the size of a '.' to the size it is now (i can't understand why gravity didn't pull it back onto itself personally), and from there there's a variety of different explanations on how the planets formed etc etc

Existence did not come from non-existence. Just because we don't understand it and find it hard to wrap our human minds around the fact that God has always existed...it does not make it not so. Our existence came from God whom has ALWAYS existed.

ummm... who said anything about non-existence? There's nothing to suggest this stuff just formed, rather it appears that the matter necessary for our universe was probably always there to begin with.

There was likely never a non-existence.

Yes you have to explain one to completely justify the other. You are right about that one. It remains a theory with a lot faith added to make it float in the minds of men.

It didn't. Matter can't be created or destroyed, only organized.
