Richard Dawkins holy grail is Darwin's theory of evolution, while Darwin himself claimed to be a theist.
The theory of evolution in 2024 is still a theory. Since it's made famous by popular science, is considered factual to such a degree, it's used as a more plausible theory next to the big bang.
What's interesting is there's now a bit of a battle going on in science as the JWT looked so far into space the Big bang theory is being dismantled. If that happens, masses of nerdy guys won't accept that.
Science doesn't know how anything could've been alive after the Earth was formed, the theory simply starts off with living organisms. While the big bang is also mysterious as to what caused absolutely nothing to even be sparked to begin with.
I mean, science does have an explination, but it would rather dwell on other things it cannot prove, like something coming from nothing which violates the various scientific laws that suggest something will never come of nothing.
With that, there are aspects about science that make it a religion for some people simply because they don't accept change when it's time for science to change it's stance on something.
It's pretty clear that inorganic matter forms organic matter too, in fact you are similar to the composition of a rock. Absolutely "nothing" wasn't sparked, energy and matter was pushed through the universe and formed through natural laws.
