I agree. There are a lot of interesting questions that we don't have solid answers for.
That said, I think the evidence clearly demonstrates that it is not important to know these answers either.
That's the most significant difference between Theists and Atheists, in my opinion:
Most Theists feel its of critical importance to know, Atheists do not. Atheists are simply curious to know the answers.
