Questions of the Universe

From what do we originate?

We discussed this question in our groups, and my fellow group mates came up with some interesting ideas. some of my group members believed in the story portrayed in the bible. Personally I believe that we came to be, from simple minded beings, and eventually through survival of the fittest and natural selection. starting off as the simplest minded being we came to be as we made tools to solve certain problems and discovered things that would lead to our evolution as a species.
