Ok, fair enough. Now just give us your "much more logical and sensible explanation" of the origin of life and the universe.
Rather than postulate that invisible magic being did it all from nothing by magic, it is more reasonable to assume that both the universe and life arose by some natural means. We may not yet know much about the processes, and although we may never answer either question completely, there is still no reason to postulate that it was done by magic by a being drawn from the mythology of ancient, bronze age, nomadic herdsmen. Since that answer is totally lacking in evidence, it is less logical and sensible than natural means, for which we do have some evidence.
