You are the one who thinks it happened by magic. And the tired old fine-tuning argument has been answered ad nauseam.
How is Florence Nightingale evidence for God's existence? Aside from the fact that she was a deist, with an impersonal god, one does not need a deity to explain good behaviour. And, as an atheist, I do not use Hitler as proof of the non-existence of a god, Hitler is consistent with no god, a god of limited power, an indifferent god, an evil god. Although there may be difficulty reconciling Hitler with an infinitely powerful benevolent god, the existence of Hitler does not rule out the possibility of some other sort of god.
Humans are NOT a random collection of atoms and molecules.
That is an asinine argument that has been debunked to death. I can't be bothered wasting time doing the PRATT dance with it (Point Refuted A Thousand Times) when it has already been done for me here:
http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/hovind/howgood-ye... (scroll to no. 25). The earth is billions of years old, and creationist arguments to the contrary have been repeatedly been exposed as nonsense.
Luther wrote "On the Jews and their lies". It contained an 8 step plan to rid Europe of Jews. The Nazis, implemented the plan in full, and then went further. Luther paved the way to the Holocaust.
And from Martin Luther, of whom Hitler was a fan. Centuries of Christian anti-Semitism also prepared the ground into which Hitler sowed his seeds of hate.
Hitler was certainly a devious and manipulative psychopath, but his views on religion followed a clear and consistent path from the Catholicism of his youth, lapsing in adulthood, leaning to Lutheranism in his early career (the Reich church project), a brief toying with something he called "positive Christianity" with an Aryan Jesus after the Reich church project collapsed, then turning on the churches and ultimately Christianity by 1939. All throughout some things remained constant: he hated atheism, he admired Jesus (whom he believed to be Aryan) and he firmly believed in a creator. All throughout his public statements on these matters matched his private ones, matched what those around him said he believed, and matched his actions. When it came to religious matters, Hitler generally meant what he said.
"I don't want to be pulled up for wrong dating" Indeed, four years out! Don't worry, the creationists are 4.5 billion years out.
Not everyone here is infantile, just the creatards, so for the benefit of those who are not and who want to hone their arguments, or who are fence-sitting, or who just enjoy the entertainment I am happy to keep pointing to Thunderf00t's excellent works.
As I said, something popping into existence out of nothing is an observed phenomenon. It is called vacuum polarization, and stems from quantum mechanics. At the quantum scale causality breaks down and things happen without cause. That is observed science, not faith. There may or may not have been a cause for the Big Bang, but there does not necessarily need to have been one. The first cause argument (Kalam cosmological argument promoted by Wm Lane Craig) therefore fails. If you invoke a cause, why does it have to be your God? Why not Allah, Thor, goblins, time travellers from the future, a flying spaghetti monster ...? If you go down the route of invoking one supernatural being you might as well invoke any other. And then there's the problem of what caused them. (Although time travellers neatly avoids that).
