I have always said any belief in how we got here is blind. You can choose to believe either A: There is a God (or higher power) and he created everything including us. This means you have blindly believe in this higher power and believe that he somehow magically came into being. You also have to believe that he loved us so much that he took the time to make us the perfect animal , yet instilled in us an innate desire to harm each other
or B: There was a bunch of stuff floating around that eventually collected and exploded causing the universe. Our planet happened to settle into an orbit around the sun that made the environment life-friendly. We then all eventually evolved from a giant vat or organic soup. This means you have to blindly believe that this stuff just existed and came together perfectly and some of the people way down on your family tree were once amoebas, fish and monkeys.
Either way there are no clear answers. I would just tell her that there are different theories out there. Her friend believes the way she does and other people believe the way they do and eventually as she gets older she will decide for herself which one makes more sense to her.
