Why does all this exist or happen, that is the religious question and people can debate that forever and no one will have an answer that satisfies everyone.

No, its still not religious.

Why did that rock roll down the hill?  Thermal cracking caused it to weaken from other rocks and when there was enough gravitational force overcome its tensile strength it broke free and rolled down the hill until its kinetic and potential energy was spent and it came to a halt at the bottom.  No religion necessary, just facts.  The same for evolution, just because you don't understand something doesn't mean you can insert Jesus, Allah, Bhudda, or what have you in there.

I think you put too fine a point on my comment.  What I was going after is, why is there matter in the first place, not why does natural phenomena happen.  I'm a damn geology major, you don't need to tell me about how things in nature and how things in the past occur, hehe. 

Why was there such a thing as The Big Bang.  What caused matter to exist or energy to exist.  Now, the answer is going to vary from person to person.  A religious person might say it is because God created it and someone else might say that it just exists, has always existed, and it works.

I give that post a 9.4.
