Is atheism a scientific perspective?

[Mister Agenda]

NOPE

Why not? What do you think about cells?

This is why religion is a concern for science educators. Some religious folks want the reputation of being scientific without doing the work, so they try to insert their religion into 'science stuff'. Then when people make videos about how they're wrong, they wonder why.

Cells are neat. We have a pretty complete understanding of why they look designed to the casual observer, yet are actually probably the result of a mindless process...multi-celled organisms certainly are; but 150 years of observation and evidence confirming that understanding doesn't stop amateurs (and a few professionals) from exclaiming 'hey, that looks designed to me!' and stopping there like they've just solved the secrets of biology.

Abiogenesis is unproven. Their are multiple plausible hypotheses, but we may never know exactly how life started. It's remotely possible that some deity poofed the first cell into existence for some reason, but natural selection and variation apply as soon as life appears, however it got here. That's the best understanding that science has been able to achieve so far. That's what should be taught by science educators. If you don't like it, come up with a theory that explains the observations, fossils, genetic record, and math better and more fruitfully.
