Not that I'm not supporting evolution, I accept it as a fact. I think the sheer amount of evidence supporting it is impossable to ignore. Call me crazy, but I have a hard time believing that the first organism popped out of no where
Ah I see what you mean, yes the first self-reproducing things (RNA or whatever it was) would have happened by random chance, but that's quite simple to explain with a billion billion possible places for it to happen, and like you said it only had to happen once.
