The first two "super natural events" have not much to do with evolution, but the creation and source of the Universe as we know it. For more information regarding such events I suggest you take a look at this thread I made a few weeks ago: Before The Big Bang
3rd supernatural event, life created itself.
Yes, the very first self-replicating organisms must have been created via some extremely rare occurrence... however, you must understand a highly unlikely event is neither impossible nor super natural.
They don’t like the alternative (God) so they use denial to continue to believe in the evolution.
That's rich coming from a person who creates a thread titled "why I hate evolution". Hypocrite much?edit on 18/6/2012 by ChaoticOrder because: (no reason given)

just google “Amazing Discovery Near Montrose, Colorado”.
I did. You get one hit from "discoverynews, which is in no way affiliated with the discovery channel mind you, and 2 other direct hits.
This thread, and the thread you probably lifted that link from.
There are various reasons for that being in the same layer, it's interesting yes, but to date, no humanoid fossils have been dated back far enough for man to have existed with dinosaurs.
As for cave paintings depicting dinosaurs. Well, we have pictures of what WE think they look like too, and guess what we had to go on? the same fossils those people probably encountered.
I could go on, but i'm sure others are already on the way.

I get the point your trying to make but you mixed in a lot of things that don't actually pertain to evolution. Evolution doesn't attempt to explain how life was created, how the the universe was created....
I'll attempt to summarize your hypothesis though...
"Even an evolutionist must admit there was some "God", or creator forces, prior to life on Earth"

likewise evoltion is the same boat.....we have no clue where life came from, so will just say it created itself.

It did. Elements of life are everywhere. And it is far more believable to accept than some mystic and invisible creator, creating things he no sooner tires off and destroys.
If you want to believe in god, you must therefore accept he created faulty creations. So much for all mighty.

you cant imagine an amazingly advanced and powerful being god,,, setting the universe into motion, with the intent of creating diverse life forms on trillions of planets,,, and have these energy capturing and utilizing mechanisms sort themselves out,,, decide their own fate and path,,,, organize themselves,,,,,, like computer programs that can "evolve" and fix themselves....... self replicating...... physical representations of math equations creating new formulas, working off of the original templates,,,,,edit on 18-6-2012 by ImaFungi because: (no reason given)

part of that I can, but some parts of that no. I don't see us as an evolving people. One argument i heard once was about the eye evolve from just a critter with one light sensitive cell that became two then 3 and so on till it evolved into the eye. But it you take the eye as example and compare to last 50 years of data, you can see the it is doing the opposite of that, every year the number of people wearing glasses is increasing in percentages. The eye is improving it’s getting worse with every generation.

Evolutionary Theory only requires living organisms. It explains diversity, not origins. However, Evolutionary Theory provides a lot of evidence for common ancestry.

A question for you.
Why does your god create such a frail and faulty thing. Life is frailty. It's fragile and full of suffering.
Why would such a god create suffering? Pain, torment, torture, poverty, and untimely death - or death at all.
Your god, if you really want to argue it, is a beast. A creep.
So.. you can tell me about original sin and I can tell you I was not part of it. You can tell me about penance and I can tell you I did not ask for the life given to me.
Your god created to destroy. Like a child making sand castles only to make them crumble under his will.
OR
Life just exists... in all it's splendid pain and misery and wonder.
You are lost... You need this crutch to accept the fallacy of life, because your god tells you it is all your fault unless you meet extraordinary standards - and then you still suffer.
Your god is an illusion.
Things are created and destroyed. We are not special. We too will become extinct one day. Where is your god then?
Your focus is on such a small scale it is pitiful. And if you try to think big, all you can think of is god.
sad really...
