All of this...................BY CHANCE?

Straw man.

No one claims it came about "by chance".

Stars are very simple objects. Hydrogen + Gravity = Star.

We have some ideas as to how it all came about. Even if you believe the invisible man in the sky made it all would it not be "chance" that he one day decided to make the universe? I mean he could've just spent eternity with just himself, but wait he already did! The "God of the gaps" is a tired argument that has been used for millennia. Oh we don't understand what lightning is, it must be from the gods! If the trend that started thousands of years ago continues, then God will disappear from this gap in our understanding as well.

To start with the premise that God did it is intellectual sloth, and will not get us anywhere.

Oh and do a search on hubble deep field survey for more pictures like the ones at the end.

But I think God did it somehow... I don't know how else to reconcile the diversity of life on this planet - as far as we know, only this planet. The attention to detail in every single minute thing. An intelligent design if ever I saw one.
