There's so much we don't know about the universe as it currently exists, but from what little evidence we've uncovered so far, the universe as we know it seems to have originated from a single point in space. Everything is moving away from each other (fact) which implies an explosion at some point in time, which would be the Big Bang.
What the state of our universe was before that bang, or how that bang came to be we will probably never know. But the big bang, while still a theory, is the beginning of time as we know it.
As for our own planet, I believe a widely accepted theory is that it was formed simply by space debris smashing into each other over time and forming our planet in the process. I suppose the moon would be created in a similar process. That our planet just happens to be at the exact right spot in the solar system for life to flourish is 100% coincidence.
