There’s no other explanation, so the only one left is a religious one?
How about this one: we simply don’t know.

Does it mean that if you don’t understand something, and the community of physicists don’t understand it, that means God did it? Is that how you want to play this game? Because if it is, here’s a list of things in the past that the physicists at the time didn’t understand, and a talk show you might have conducted 200 years ago would have said “The planets do retrograde? Can’t understand that, must be a God.” And we’d say “You know, you’re right.” And then 10 years later we understand it, so what do you do? So if that’s how you want to invoke your evidence for God, then God is an ever-receding pocket of scientific ignorance that’s getting smaller and smaller and smaller as time moves on, so just be ready for that to happen if that’s how you want to come at the problem. -NDGT

That’s not what I meant at all. Let me rephrase this then, we should just admit that there are some things we don’t know, and that science OR religion can’t explain right at this moment. So both ideas should work together instead of bickering about who’s right.

Topic: Serious Discussion / Creation vs. Evolution

While it is true that creationists have no “real” evidence (which begs the question “What is real?”, but that is for a different discussion), there is one thing for certain. Science has proven that every creature alive on this planet, and possibly on other planets, has evolved, in one form or another. They’ve proven how plants make their own “food”, why humans laugh,why some animals lay eggs, while others “hatch” their offspring right away (give birth), etc.. Although one thing science has not been able to tell us is why the Big Bang happened. Which is the scientific equivalent to why did God really create light (The seven days of creation)? The thing is, at some point or another, we scientists have to admit that they, in fact no one, really knows EVERYTHING there is to know about our origin. Which is where God comes in, we’ve gotten to a point that there just has to be some kind of “Divine Intervention”, some trigger if you will, that started the last 13.75 billion years. So there is no other explanation, Science and Religion go hand in hand. The best way i can think of explaining this is that Science and Religion were born of a woman, let’s say Imagination. At first, the two brothers (or sisters, whatever floats your boat) got along just fine, and as they got older, their opinions started changing. And by the time they were fully formed “adults”, the perceptions of the worlds were quite different. Then Science married Heresy, and Religion married Piety. Thus, Creation and Evolution were borne into the minds of men and women to choose, or to accept both.
