Are all atheists this ill-informed about religion?

And, I have to ask, who's ego is larger?  Someone who simply marvels at the size of the universe and the incredibly low odds that we're us, or someone who thinks that an unseen parental figure created an environment just for them to live in?

Theists, but modern Christians in particular, suffer from what I'm now labeling the Double Star Trek Fallacy.  They think that everything around them "must be meant for man" while never asking "what does god need with a starship humanity?"  If that's not hubris, nothing is.

 Neither you and Cato can offer any profound thought on the meaning of life, etc and just sit wait for proof.  What a waste!!  Rather try to grasp the meaning of life, meditate on it, try to understand beyond death, etc. 

 Only thing you proved is that your are LAZY to try to have deep thoughts on this topic.  You are just unwilling to do it
