Evolution takes no stand on the existence or lack thereof of a god or gods. Whether you think life originated out of ever-more complex chemical reactions occurring on an ancient Earth, or was breathed into existence by God, evolution would take over after that moment. It’s a bit like the Big Bang; we don’t know how the Universe came into existence at that moment, but starting a tiny fraction of a second after that event our science does a pretty fair job of explanation.

Abiogenesis (/ˌ eɪ b aɪ .ɵ ˈ dʒ ɛ n ɨ s ɪ s / AY-by-oh-JEN-ə-siss [1]) or biopoiesis[2] is the natural process by which life arose from non-living matter such as simple organic compounds.

Abiogenesis, or what came before the Big Bang, are independent lines of inquiry from Evolution.
