Blasphemous flames plume on thy tongue.
Thy Lord exist! I hath proof of thee. Art thy curious? 
Behold!
so since he doesn't exist , what answer would the scientist who does exists give me?
what the pikaias ancestor and where did it come from?
lets start here..
The Epic of Enuma Elish
The Enuma Elish Epic is a Babylonian creation myth. However, the God’s of Sumer were the God’s of the Fertile Crescent, or Mesopotamia. Hence, the Enuma Elish is a depiction of the Creation based on Sumerian mythology which was later used in Babylonian, Akkadian and Assyrian myths.
The following is a basic rundown of the battle that occurs in the Enuma Elish.
The first tablet begins:
When the sky above was not named,
And the earth beneath did not yet bear a name,
And the primeval Apsû, who begat them,
And chaos, Tiamat, the mother of them both,
Their waters were mingled together,
And no field was formed, no marsh was to be seen;
When of the gods none had been called into being.
Take this with the Hebrew Bible which states in Genesis:
In the beginning of God's creating the skies and the earth, when the earth had been shapeless and formless, and darkness was upon the face of the deep, and God's spirit was hovering on the face of the water, God said, 'Let there be light!'
The English translation of Genesis above can easily be translated to depict the immediate chaos after God’s creation of Earth. In both, the existence of the world is empty besides the water. The sequence of creation is also similar; light, firmaments, land, luminaries and man.
Night and day were created as a regulator of time:
Gen. 1:14: And God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark seasons and days and years”
Enuma Elish 5:12–13: “The Moon-god he caused to shine forth, the night he entrusted to him. He appointed him, a being of the night, to determine the days;”
The consultation of God(s) before the creation of man:
Gen 1:26: "God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness
Enuma Elish 6:4-9: That which he had conceived in his heart he imparted unto him:"My blood will I take and bone will I fashion. I will make man, that man may. I will create man who shall inhabit the earth”
The similarities are many and there is a high chance that the Hebrew Bible is in fact a derivation of the original Epic. So our Sumerian God’s survived in literature, in a way, to this very day. The question then is now how such coincidences came to be as it is clear (only few examples provided above) that the writers of Genesis were very familiar with the Enuma Elish, but why they would base this ‘new’ creation on an already told account, could it be they were simply trying to retell the same story in a different style.

Enki the Original Prometheus
Enki - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Prometheus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Figure 2: Two depictions of 'The Temptation', one of a serpent, the other of a half-man hybrid.)
+It was Enki who created the first humans, AD.AM and EVE.
+Enki was the serpent in the garden who urged AD.AM and EVE to eat from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil in the garden, Enki was the serpent.
+It was Enlilhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enlil then, who drove them out of ED.EN once they had betrayed his commands, his authority.
+Enki was there to clothe AD.AM and EVE.
It’s interesting to note here the use of the Hebrew word for snake in the Bible, nâchâsh, which translates to ‘the hissing serpent’. But it comes from the word NHSH, which means ‘to decipher, to find out’.
(Figure 3: The Annunaki God's(outisde) pass knowledge to the King's(inside) standing around the Tree of Knowledge.)
The above image is an Assyrian (remember, Babylonian and Assyrian mythology derived from Sumerian mythology) peice which depicts ANUNAKI gods on the outside and humans on the inside. Popular belief is that the God on the left or right is Enki himself, giving life to the humans, with the Tree of Life in the middle, providing spiritual enlightenment, all the while being overlooked by Anshar (the flying god).
So, as we understand it, Enki gave knowledge and enlightenment to mankind. Enki is commonly represented as a double-helix snake. This symbol is the modern day symbol for medicine, but the double-helix itself, is the same shape as human DNA, oddly enough.
it is evident that Enki and his association with the snake (knowledge) has traversed the millennia and survived in modern day symbolism. In a way, the mythological Enki still survives in modern day science, as he was the father of all sciences for the Sumerians. T the representation of the double-helix snake as Enki and the close resemblance to human DNA is not coincidental, as Enki was the biological designer of modern humans.
Probably some random bacteria from the precambrian age.

"god of the gaps" i see...
that is one of the silliest arguments for a theist to use... the gaps are getting smaller and smaller, thus your god shrinks and shrinks... its already to the point where its a chore to try and find where the guy in your storybook has a place

Cool story bro , so you have no answer neither
all you do is keep asking "...but where did that come from"
You might think God is the answer, but its certainly not the correct one. After all, who made God and where did that thing come from?
i don't think god is the answer, i don't know what the answer is , none of us do.
Okay, what is with this passive aggressive bullshyt? Some funkdoc shyt breh
There are answers to many questions. But there is only so long I can provide answers to "...but where did that come from"
It's AMAZING that we know as much as we do
