Why there must be a God

So I want to tell you about a brainstorm I've been having lately. Something that I've been mulling over in my mind for the past couple of weeks. I'm sure other people have already tread this ground, but it has only recently struck home for me.

A lot of people don't believe in God because it isn't "logical" to do so; they don't understand the idea of faith. There isn't any direct evidence that He exists, therefore He must not. But it struck me the other day that NOT believing in God is even LESS logical. Here is why: it all has to do with the origin of life. The spark that began the so-called process of evolution that led the Earth to generate living beings. And as far as I understand my science, scientists DO believe it was a "spark." One of the leading theories for the origin of life deals with what scientists term a "cosmic soup," basically an environment rich with amino acids and the other things required for life to exist, this environment was barraged with lightning and SHAZZAM!!! there was a little one-celled organism complete with DNA, little tentacles to move around, with the ability to replicate itself, and in the future connect with other one-celled organisms to create life as we know it.

This, my friends, is a mathematical impossibility. I'm no mathematician, but it makes perfect sense to me. Life CANNOT spontaneously generate itself!

Can lightning strike silicon rich soil and generate a computer chip? No. And yet, even a single celled organism is infinitely more complex than a computer chip. Think about the complexity of the DNA strand found in every cell, something that the best supercomputers in the world have been mapping for decades. . .and it all generated with amino acids and electricity?

I can believe the theory of evolution, to me it makes a certain amount of sense. . .but the idea that it all began with a simple spark is preposterous. There had to be a guiding hand to set things in motion, a God.

Either there is a God, or life generated itself through a very complex set of events.

Both of these ideas are equally impossible. I guess people have to choose which impossibility they would rather believe, but in only one of these events will their faith be rewarded.
