Today is Ask An Atheist Day.

43. Well this is exciting

I'm not an atheist but I always have curiosities in atheism concepts

It's good to be able to actually communicate with atheists here rather than just reading the books, in the place where I live it's kinda hard to find an atheist to ask

One of the concepts I'm curious about is evolution, I'm not saying that I'm totally against it, but in some areas there are a few things that raised too many questions for me and I never get the answers

Here's one question, in evolution theory (please correct me if I'm wrong) all creatures are originated in the water, from organisms they evolved into some kind of fish, then they grew legs, lungs, and whatever they need to live on land. So how did they do this? were they like just telling their cells "yo.. cells.. I want to walk on land so give me some legs!" or the cells just moved themselves and formed the legs? is that mean they have a mind of their own? what drove those cells? It was too perfect to be said "random" or coincidence, the shapes, size, the numbers are just perfect for their environment. Or was it the brain somehow telling the cells to create new legs? but that also doesn't add up to me, because if so, what about plants which also evolving? like berries for example, I read an article that said berries were used to look ugly then they evolved to be colorful so they could attract birds which then help them breed, plants don't have brains so how is that possible?

I mean, is evolution happen just because there is an urge then there is a solution for that urge? that sounds too good to be true.

Please enlighten me
