the more science discovers the more it points to a creator
There is a serious theory by an Oxford Professor of Philosophy, Nick Bostrom, that we are actually living in a computer simulation created by "post-human" intelligence. See Are You Living in a Simulation? You may or may not be aware that scientists have determined that the "cosmological constant" is so finely tuned that it seems very unlikely that it could have been completely random (it's 123 decimal places, and if it was out by even one, then life could not have evolved). This would then require "intelligent design". Which scientists hate. So physicists then came up with the multiverse theory to counter that. Multiverse theory says that there is not one universe, but an infinite number of universes, each with a slightly different setting for the "cosmological constant" number. This satisfied scientists that they did not have to concede to "intelligent design" i.e. some sort of creator. HOWEVER, they fell into a logic trap which the philosophers quickly pointed out, and that is, that if there are an infinite number of universes each with different "cosmological constants", billions of which would harbour no life (wrong settings), and billions of which would harbour life, then there is no way to know, or even assume, that OUR universe is the most optimal universe. That being the case, it is logical that there could be much more intelligent life in any number of these superior universes.Ergo, no one can refute the possibility that we are in fact living in an "ancestor simulation", being run by post-human intelligent life who are curious to see where they came from and how they evolved...Not for me.... Evolution is where we and all things came from. If we were created by an all seeing and all knowing creator, then why create us to evolve.....? Was he/she not happy with what they created in the first place....??

lol no m8 but i will give it a go lol
What gets me is that everything must have a beginning. So how did the universe begin? What was there before it and how did that begin? It's not possible for there to be nothing, but then again there must be a start.

We believe we've found the starting point of the universe where it was mainly gas and energy, and eventually gravity formed a few rocks, starts, planets, they kept smashing in each other to form new ones. Stars die out and explode and hit other gases and starts and planets which sparks new planets, rocks, stars. Then we've got millions of blackholes sucking in galaxy's, stars, planets, solar systems and they eventually 'exlode' too (turn into quasars) which emit energy into other gases stars and planets. It keeps going on.
So it's fair to say we might have only found the starting point of the galaxies near us as we just can't measure relatively far away from us as we've only been exploring space for the past 50 odd years. Hence many of us (not most now I'm pleased to say) still believing in a fictional character(s) written only a couple of thousand years ago.
The sad truth is there probably is other life on other planets far away. But it would take thousands of years to get out of our own solar system, let alone get to another. We would need to support life on a ship of some form and keep it going on lifeless fuel (solar or something) but we just don't have the tech.
We've literally only just discovered that there are other planets and not gods up there in space. So it'll be a long long time before we manage to find the truth behind what's out there. The furthest a man has ever got is to our moon. Which in space terms; is as close to earth as your front window is to your front door. We've not even managed to cross the road.
I doubt in our lifetime we'll even get to our moon again. And there is a good chance human life will die out before we even have the tech to get a human to even mars and the likes.
Though don't be fooled into thinking some god or being made all of this. The truth is much more interesting. We keep using the same energy that has always existed and it keeps reforming into other planets, stars, moons, rocks, and every now and again - life like us, or dinosaurs even.
