As I already said, we all make basic philosophical assumptions about the nature of existence and the universe itself. That's our starting point and we go from there.
The rest of your post, as LifeToTheFullest! pointed out, is all over the map. Spend some more time figuring out what you're trying to say and form a more coherent argument. Because right now you're all over the place.

There's nothing all that essentially impressive about a being doing something that it's able to do. It's like a bird flying. I can't, and it's kind of cool that they can, but I'm not going to worshiping birds just because they can do stuff I can't. No sacred scripture really makes creating stuff seem all that *difficult* anyway. I mean, you say "Let there be light," and...there it is. A god creating the world seems slightly less impressive--in terms of effort and risk--than me creating scrambled eggs.
If, however, the world slowly came into existence organically, layer upon layer of complexity building onto itself.....that boggles my mind and takes my breath away. That this continuum of entirely natural process led to the creation of stars and galaxies, and that I am made of the same substances....that is truly incredible. That makes me jump up and down, grab people by the shoulders and yell, "Do you know about this!?"

Wait until you ex-materia creationists read the final chapter, though.
It's titled: THERMAL EQUILIBRIUM.
