It says a lot.  But you guys are in denial. Really, that is all there is to Atheism. Denial of proofs and the clear design of the world we are in.


In clear denial that it was designed but well aware of the hand in glove fit manner in which the puddle gloriously fits the hole in which it sits.  Really that is all there is to god belief, you behold the puddle and imagine God almighty as having crafted it like a boss.

Your just pushing the problem back a step each time. You can't have an infinite regress, so it has to stop somewhere. For the sake of argument, "the universe" is used to hold the place of some point in the past.


Oh wait, I forgot what this argument was based on: God or we don't have a comprehensive explanation of the universe.  Guess what, we don't have a complete explanation.  Life goes on.
