Do you have any doubts?

I find the big bang a bit far fetched, but there's a ton of evidence backing it up, so I believe it. Evolution I have no trouble believing, that actually makes total sense to me. Yes, some things are hard to explain, but so what? That doesn't mean a thing! You can't expect the human race to know everything now! Look how far we've come! Roughly 600 years ago, we thought the earth was flat and that the universe orbited around it. We don't know how everything happens, but that doesn't mean we have to start explaining it with things that aren't scientifically possible.

Do I have doubts that it was the Big Bang that created the universe? Yes. We don't know much about that period of time, so there could be other explanations we have yet to discover and explore. Alternatively, there could be no creation, just simply existence - that seems the most likely to me. You can't create more matter/energy; therefore the universe couldn't have just come into existence. There had to be matter/energy for the universe to be made out of.
So I think that the Big Bang may be incorrect.
Do I think that a god may have made it? I think that even the Big Bang is a more reasonable explanation, but, honestly, there is nothing that disproves the existence of a god or some sort of omnipotent life form. So it's possible, but I doubt that that is the explanation.
About evolution? I am fully convinced. Darwin's finches on the Galapagos prove that, as do fossils, etc. It doesn't seem at all far fetched to me. Adaptation over time leads to larger changes and, thus, evolution. If things couldn't adapt and therefore didn't evolve, how would life persist? -
I was brought up atheist but I supposed because of my doubts, I am now agnostic, but I believe god(s) create life but do not control it, so evolution can happen with out (the) god(s) planning it.
