Then from where did the highly advanced groups of scientist come from? Yet another more advanced scientist?

I believe God created us. The fact that ANYTHING at all exists proves God can. The reason its 2018, is because Christ died 2018 years ago. B.C. Before Christ A.D. Anno Domini.

From the same place "god" comes from. Who said the hypothetical scientists are living biological creatures? Anyway, isn't the God of biblical creation a scientist? Or is it a magician?
Perhaps, "god" is a predictable phenomena of consciousness and self awareness that naturally arises from the infinate universe.

For the record, my views on the existence of a God can be described as unknown. I do not claim to know if God does or does not exist. If God does exist, then we probably aren't at a level of progression/comprehension necessary to acknowledge/understand God. Having said that, I have come up with a question that seriously challenges the plausibility of atheism:
If life came about by the process of abiogenesis, what was the probability that the earliest forms of life (organic matter) could not only survive, but evolve to the extent of there existing various types of multi-cellular organisms?
God: a supreme being that created life/existence
Atheist: an individual who does not believe that God exists
Abiogenesis: the natural process by which life arises from non-living matter
Anybody that believes the answer is >0% should explain how such a conclusion is plausible.
Ps 111:10 The fear of the LORD [is] the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do [his commandments]: his praise endureth for ever.
Pr 9:10 The fear of the LORD [is] the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy [is] understanding.
Job 28:28 And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.
Pr 1:7 ¶ The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
Ec 12:13 ¶ Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
we aren't talking about terroristic fear
