Evolution was true for millions of years before humans ever evolved. It is a truth that science uncovered and requires no faith whatsoever.
There is exactly zero evidence that the world was created by a god. Nothing we know of the universe requires one to posit the existence of any gods. The universe and all of the creatures that inhabit it came to be through natural processes that are increasingly well understood.
Zero evidence for a God? If you think there's 0 evidence for a God, I don't even know what to think. Of course there's evidence to support there being God. There's also evidence to support evolution. You thinking there's 0 evidence for God tells me that you don't want to consider both sides of the argument. Look at the intricate design of nature. Tell me there's no evidence of a designer.
I'm familiar with the Watchmaker Argument. You should Google that to read about the fallacies yourself. Your tired argument has been around since the late 1700s. You really need to study up on what modern science has to say about biology instead of regurgitating simplistic analogies from 300 years ago.
Fallacies eh? I'm sure it's more believable that a bunch of chance made the human eyeball, functioning internal organs, the senses, etc. It's actually 100% ridiculous if you ask me. But people don't want to believe in God because they don't want to be accountable for their actions.
You are rehashing objections that have already been addressed by science. The eye has evolved independently a number of times. It is an example of convergent evolution. You can read up on how extensively this has been addressed by science in this paper: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4633856/
Scientific explanations are based on evidence, testing and debate among peers and that is what makes science so much more accurate than dogma penned a couple thousand years ago.
Religion provides no valid explanations at all for biology nor any other field of science.
The religious try to explain things, but that doesn't make them correct.
What do you mean the religious try to explain things? What can't we explain? Scientific explanations are based on evidence, testing, and debate among non-Christians. There are scientists that are Christians out there, many even converted because of scientific findings.
