We are on an ongoing quest to know everything, maybe we never will ....
The difference between the religious is they get the answer from an ancient book.
Every time the ancient book is debunked on a point the religious just re-interpret their book.
We don't know something had to start everything its an assumption, but even if that was correct why does it need to be a God? or further why your particular God? .... then even if there was a God, why would he have any interest in us? why would that make him good?
The difference between an atheist and the religious is we don't know all the answers, were as the religious "believe" they do based on books written by semi-illiterate stone age people that thought the earth was flat. Or some "prophet", or Pope that leads an organization that profits from the belief in their God .....
I'm not making a case for religion specifically. Merely comparing the belief that there was a supernatural element at play (not being specific on who or what), with believing this was all nature on its own from the very beginning.
We have no scientific proof or evidence of any sort regarding how this all began, and as far as we know, everything in nature, every force, etc, has to come from something. So thinking there was no supernatural element at play still doesn't line up with how we understand nature, and still requires a certain degree of faith.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
