Yes. Why? Becuase. Because Why? This is a deep, deep question, in fact I just heard a sermon on this today and I could type for a long time on this subject. However I will address it with a few key points (one a day) to at least stimulate the mind and get you to start asking questions.
1. Irreducible Complexity- It means what it says, there are somethings in life that are so complex that you take away one part and the whole system is a bust. Now what does this prove and why is it important. This points to a creator. But before I can explain why I need to explain that according to evolutionary theory's principle of natural selection, "the natural genetic variation within a population of organisms may cuase some individuals to survive and reproduce more successfully than other in the current environment" and the ones that do not "genetically adapt" get selected out (go extinct). This means that creatures slowly evolve over time and the ones that do not adapt to their environments go extinct. This principle is a cornerstone of modern biology. But there are numerous examples of structures in nature that pose a serious problem for this and point to the necessity of a creator. A fine example is the bacterial flagellum, it has a certain number of tiny parts that allow the bacteria to use it as a motor to propel itself, the problem arises when even one of those parts is missing then the motor ceases to work. According to the principle of natural selection, the flagellum would have been "selected out" and bacteria that utilize this method of propulsion would not exist or have devloped a different method because all the parts have to be there at the same time for it to work. According to evolution the parts would have evolved over time, but that is not possible, because as mention, also according to evolutions natural selection this inoperable motor would have been selected out. However it exists today with all the working parts, which begs the question as how could it have evolved, it could not have.
