For any grown adult to believe that such a perfect universe and such perfectly created human beings popped out of nowhere suddenly for absolutely no reason is much much more of an insult to mankind's intelligence

How does your response justify believing in winged creatures flying to heaven and the moon splitting? If you believe these things (and I think you do), then no amount of logical reasoning can persuade you otherwise. And THAT is the problem with religions. You have to be brainwashed into not accepting any other answers, whereas atheists are free to throw away beliefs that have been proven scientifically false.
There is an ALLLL-knowing, ALLLL-powerful, inVISible being who is everywhere, who created the WHOLE universe, who lives in another dimension called heaven, who is perfect in every way, who was never born and will never die, and who watches you every minute of every day (even when you're squeezing one out on the toilet). There are also unicorns, leprechauns, Santa Claus, an Easter Bunny, and a giant purple people eater.
