Who is Correct?

There are so many different arguments on whether or not God exists. I don't care if anyone believes in Him or not. My issue is when people make pathetic and hypocritical arguments. What people don't realize is that there is just as much proof to show that God exists as there is to show he doesn't. People can ask questions from either side only to have another question launched at them back.

Creation
Christians believe God created the universe. Atheists believe the universe was created naturally. So which is it? Or, maybe I should ask, why couldn't they BOTH be right? The Big Bang Theory is a huge guess with still so many questions to be answered.

First, let's look at our earth. It is a vast ecosystem where everything here has a purpose. If one species died, so would many others. The earth is set so life can exist perfectly. We have the right elements, the right components, the right proportions of night to day and temperature variations. Everything is for a purpose here. Even the natural disasters help the environment. How could this world be so perfect that it wasn't created? Or, how could this whole universe be made in such a miraculous way, but an all-powerful being couldn't be created? If all these elements and everything could appear out of nowhere, then why couldn't God? Couldn't God have been "born" and learned how everything worked, and then created a universe?

And, why couldn't God have made evolution? When you think about it, every species has a role in the world, EXCEPT humans, speaking naturally. What do we do for the earth that it couldn't have done on its own? If we weren't here, the earth would thrive. So, why would we be here, unless there was a specific reason? Or are we just a mistake of mother nature? A mistake that has reached an intelligence like no other? And, why aren't there MORE species like us here? Why aren't more species just as intelligent and capable as us? If we evolved, then why did some organisms remain how they were millions of years ago? Why didn't they all become like us?

I personally believe there is a chance that both science and religion are correct. There is supporting evidence on both sides. Stop looking at the black and white and start looking at the gray. And honestly, I'm tired of hearing Atheists and Christians bag on each other. Christians: If you want to be respected, then stop trying to make everyone feel bad by telling how "you're right and we're ll going to Hell." Atheists: Stop feeling like we Chrisitians "owe" you. Two wrongs don't make a right, so both of you shut up.
