Interestingly, if you actually READ about this subject, you learn some
fascinating details:

1. We have no idea how life started.

2. Evolution is almost a statement of the bleeding obvious.

3. Given conditions that support a large amount of life, it is actually
CERTAIN that something amazing will evolve. It is not improbable that
humans have evolved, it is actually pretty inevitable that something as
complex as humans would evolve.
