Or the other side of the coin, if everything requires a beginning, what was responsible for the beginning of god?
If it exists?? Come on, I am not talking to a child, or am I? Glad you ain't in a position of authority too for that remark. DARN.
Evolutionist claims that everything that came in to existence as it is today, came from nothing. Now what does that mean? Its not a tricky question, its a stupid statement.
I dont know where God came from, I just believe the word of God and that He truly is the Creator and if I die someday and God does not exist, then so be it. At least I had something to live for, to die for. Its my choice.

If people and animals were on earth for billions of years, it is only logic that there would have been plenty of fossils. I understand that it isn't an easy process and there is stuff far beyond my thinking, but this is logic.
By looking at how the technology industry boosted over the last 20 years, why only now? Why not thousands of years ago did technology boost and gone over the roof? It just doesnt make sense to me. I agree that a lot of stuff is still evolving, but humans live on technology, we depend on technology, why wasnt most of it there years and years ago?

The theory of evolution makes no such claim.
The rest of your post is based on assumptions with less evidence than evolution! I prefer to base my life on facts, and when something is unknown, I will weigh it accordingly.🙂

Here is the definition of evolution.
In biology, evolution is change in the genetic material of a population of organisms through successive generations.
I'm not sure what you think the theory of evolution is, but it's clear you don't really know what you're talking about.

If god is so powerful, why can't we verify his existence directly. Everyone who believes in god today is taking other peoples' word(s) for it. Given that people often are in error reporting on current events, why should we believe people from 2000 or more years ago especially when it is likely many were acting in there own self interest.
Your own bias is preventing you from seeing the obvious.
God's power is directly seen in all that exists. How can one look into the night sky and not say to himself, "how did all this come into existence"?

The answer doesn't come from man.
How can one look into the night sky and think there is no life on other planets?

No. God.
Romans 1:20
For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
