Particle physicist Brian Cox says that the question of how life arose in the universe is the most important question facing human kind.
Stone age humans would probably agree.

But why is an atheist like him saying that is (still) an important question. Surely the answer according to atheism is an infinite regression into a past eternal universe where everything has already happened an infinite number of times, including abiogenesis/panspermia.

Which reminds me, I'm still waiting for my Shakespearean sonnets. Whats keeping those monkeys? They must have been typing forever....
