I'm alive because my parents had teh sex. And before that, their parents did. And so on, until somewhere back in time monkeys were involved. And before that, microbes or somethin'. How did it all start? I don't know, but we certainly aren't all here because Adam & Eve's kids thought incest was fabulous. You do know that if you believe in Adam & Eve, that you're a product of a whole lot of in-breeding, right?

I prefer to say that I do not know. I have no idea WHY I am alive. If you mean it in a spiritualistic way. Physically, I agree with AAnnAArchy about "teh sex".
More deeply, I certainly hope I'll figure out why I am alive. Find my purpose and all that.

Sephia, what do you mean you agree about "teh sex"? Are you saying monkeys were involved with you as well?
Kinky!

I mean that I am here because of something my parents did, who are here because of something their parents did, and while I am not 100% certain about evolution, if a few monkeys were involved, a few millenia ago, ok. It doesn't really bother me.

Some people just find it hard to believe that there is a person who controls their life.
Where do you get the absurd notion that there is a person controlling your life. God is the energy of nature - neither sentient or aware of anything, as far as we can tell.
Imagine a circle and a sphere. The sphere says to the circle "hey, can you spin like this?" and the sphere spins on its x axis. The circle says "yes, I can" and spins on its x axis. The sphere says "Well, what about spinning like this?" and it proceeds to spin on its y axis. The circle confirms that it can also spin on its y axis by demonstration. "Hmmm," says the sphere, "can you spin like this?" and spins on its z axis. The circle sees the sphere spinning but can't comprehend the movement whatsoever because, while a sphere is three dimensional, the cirle only has two dimensions and it will never be able to understand anything greater than itself.
We are three dimensional objects and there is a force spinning before us but we can't comprehend it as it is a dimension or more above us - a dimension outwith time, hence the eternity of God.
Remember, He gave man free will in the book of Genesis, so you can't say that you are being "controlled" either. 
so basicly because we cant prove god or a fouth dimention is not there, we should assume god and and fourth dimention is?... seems odd to me.

why the hell would I believe in something that i can't see?
people say God is all around you and quoting from the gospel of st. Thomas;
"god is all around you, not in buildings of wood and stone. split a piece of wood and i am there,lift a rock and you will find me"
i think that it sounds crazy but my family are all christians and i'd rather stick with science.
