Creation by Accident?

Some want to live as if there is no God to whom they must answer. To avoid the need for God they teach that all we see came into being by accident.
Matter has always existed, they say, but at some time long ago matter exploded. Some flying pieces from this “Big Bang” came together by chance and they formed our system of sun and planets, with our own wonderful world. Much smaller pieces later came together in such a way that they happened to form living things. Over ages these gradually changed their form in many ways - all by accident, too - and we humans are the result. We have no spirit and no real purpose. From a long line of accidents, we are an accident on its way to its final accident! Does such a picture make sense?
How could so many accidents result in such order? What would happen if you caused a great explosion to scatter a pile of rocks and wood? Even if you repeated this many times over, would the millions of pieces ever have the chance of coming together in such a way as to form a normal house? Would the heavier rocks happen to come down first to make a perfect foundation? Would smaller pieces then fall in by chance to make straight walls on all sides, with doors and windows all in place? Would other pieces finally fall in such order as to make a roof that keeps rain out?
