There are no "atheist stories for creation". The universe hasn't been proved to have a beginning. Learn some actual fucking science.

Are you embarrassed by the fact that you have to enlist people even dumber than yourself to tell you why your faith in your jesus might be right, and people a trillion times smarter than your Jesus could have imagined is wrong?

@ OP: Swap out "atheists" for "physicists" and then we can talk. While scientists of every stripe can indeed be atheists, theists, Santa believers, or any other combination of belief systems (and none) in their personal lives, their work - if they're doing it properly - goes where the evidence leads and has nothing to do with what they may believe personally.
Also, you need to realise that agnosticism and atheism/theism are not mutually exclusive and that a person can be both; just as they can be gnostic atheists/theists.
Apart from that, is this all we can expect from you? An apologist video and a "ha-ha-ha, explain that one athiests, 'cos you can't!" thrown in for flavour?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

First of all, those are all baseless assertions. While science often suggests that a thing appears to work in one way or another, it doesn't just leave it at that and accept the supposition as an absolute model. We are reinventing the wheel every day. If it was left up to believers we'd still be exorcising demons to cure the sick, as a common medical practice; offering sacrifices to volcanoes, and concluding that the practice is what keeps them from constantly erupting; and, believing that the sun is a God, just because it's all shiny and warm and shit.
The reason that video is only 50 seconds long is because it is making wild claims then jumping to conclusions, without offering that all important middle part - you know, valid evidence and proof.

Ok, for the sake of argumentation, I'll grant you all those arguments. Now what... Praise Allah? Oh wait...
