When a god-soaked retards invoke their magic god fairy of the gaps these four quotes are useful.

Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge: it is those who know little, not those who know much, who so positively assert that this or that problem will never be solved by science.

-- Charles Darwin

If the history of science teaches us anything, it is that what conquers our ignorance is research, not giving up and attributing our ignorance to the miraculous work of a creator.
-- Jerry Coyne

Science is a philosophy of discovery, intelligent design is a philosophy of ignorance.
-- Neil deGrasse Tyson

"To surrender to ignorance and call it God has always been premature, and it remains premature today."
-- Isaac Asimov

Scientists understand in great detail how new species develop and they have good ideas for how the first simple living cells got a foothold on Earth. They know how solars systems are born, and they understand how the universe began. Your god of the gaps has run out of hiding places.
You can look any of this stuff up if you're interested. Google is your friend.
