Do you have any idea how long 3 billion years is (length of time life has been proven to been present on Earth) and what can happen on its own during that length of time? I entered the workforce in 1977. I worked in one of the most advanced laboratories in the world. At the time, no one dreamed of owning or using a personal computer. Today, 25 years later, even my toothbrush has a computer chip in it. Take the advancement in human thought in just 25 years and multiply it by 40,000 to get to the million years humans have been around in current form, and it is easy to see how we evolved from grunting, club-wielding apes to now. Multiply the last 25 years by 120 million to get the 3 billion years and it is easy to see there has been time to evolve from single cells to us. The problem with people who believe in God is that they have no perception of time. Given all those years, why believe there had to be God? There has been plenty of time for this to all happen on its own.

The second issue is your assumption that we are all that complex. We, as humans, have virtually no systems, organs, or body parts that aren't tried and true designs used in other animals. Do you realize that less than 1 percent of our DNA is different from chimps? We have eyeballs that are eerily similar to those of an octopus. Several other animals have frontal lobe brains capable of advanced thought. Every one of our organs exists in cats. Ninety percent of all pharmaceuticals have the same effect on rats as on humans. Face it, we aren't that special. We are mostly made of retread parts.
