The cornerstone of modern atheism is the belief that everything needing to be explained can be explained in terms of physical phenomena, i.e. physical reduction. Mental phenomena are characterized by two things: raw sensation and intentionality (‘about’ness). These two aspects of reality do not fit within any physical paradigm.

Fun fact: materialism and atheism are two different things, and they don't necessarily go hand in hand.

But, at least we now know why you believe: your entire reason for believing in god is the argument from ignorance. Cool.
