Gods have long been used to describe why certain physical phenomenon occur. For example, questions such as why the sun rises each day, why it rains, why it snows, why crops grow, why crops die, why good or bad things happen, why shooting stars exist and what they mean, why there are tides, the reasons for thunder and lightning, and literally countless other occurrences have been attributed to the Gods.
Just because science does not have an explanation for something does not mean that it will never have an explanation for it. Every single one of the above mentioned phenomenon is now considered trivial scientifically. Based on the history of scientific discovery, and the rate at which we are progressing, is it so impossible to assume that in the years to come science will not have a definite answer for precisely how evolution took place? It is undeniable that soon discoveries will be made that are completely incomprehensible today. Just as it is unlikely that the Ancient Mayan's, who were far more progressed than the other cultures of their time, never considered understanding how to split an atom, it is absurd to assume that humans of this day and age are ready to understand the complexities regarding evolution or the beginning of the universe.
Must science explain every single possible detail about the existence of the universe before the need for a supreme being or creator is obsolete?
the problem is until our society gets more intelligent we will still have too many morons than can't comprehend modern science therefore think its fake and then turn to religion.
