I understand evolution on earth.
My issue is how did anything at all happen?

We may not know every possible aspect of evolution but we have a pretty darn good understand already supported by a mountain of evidence.
The metal gymnastics being displayed by science deniers in this thread is astounding.
On Earth I agree. But how did life start here? How did life start anywhere? How did the first molecules happen?
That would come under "we don't know" with a possible "yet" at the end. There are plenty of hypotheses to explain the beginning of life though. Just pick the one you like best (even if it's Goddidit).
What was the very first thing? How could it happen?

According to the theory the first "thing" was a very great deal of energy. There is no way of determining where it was or how it got there. Because, until expansion began there was no space or time. We can see evidence of what happened after that but not before.
Somewhat likewise, there is no way of determining how life began on Earth. But we can understand how it changed over time.

Again, the answer would be "we don't know" with a possible "yet". If science had the answers for everything already there would be no need for experiments to find out the answers.
We don't definitely know the answer for a lot of things. That's why there's a "we don't know" with a possible "yet", answer if people don't know. It's not needed to be filled in by something else until an answer has been found.

Then why so we kill each other over some God... ?. Nothing make adds up.

I think you're mixing up threads. This one is to do with (apparently) evolution.

Yes, evolution needs life. That's it. Evolution is about changes in life on a large scale. Not how life came into existence.
Am I saying this simple enough for you?

Did "god" create evolution? Why would God not be apart Iif evolution?

And you don't understand how science works. That's hardly shocking coming from you.
Try picking up a book and learning the difference between origins of life and evolution.
