It doesn't exclude the possibility of a god or gods, however it does remove the necessity for a god. If the universe does not require a god to create it, then there's no necessity for a god to exist. It doesn't disprove god's existence, it simply supports the fact that a god isn't needed and so his very existence is unnecessary.
Knowledge, I still think is the greatest threat to religion.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
