Truth comes from what is known,morals are a result of your environment, culture, and society, logic comes with the development of the intellect. All of these are natural processes of the mind and there is no need for god in any of it.
"Sounds like you are saying: "I don't know how the universe came to be...but many scientists believe it was forms in such a way because of X, Y, and Z. Because I cannot/will not believe God did it, I am resolved to either agree with the prevailing view of scientists or just say 'I don't know'."
Not much of a worldview to take seriously."
That is exactly what I am saying! But basing my so called knowledge on a book claiming to be inspired by god is even more ridiculous. You are as ignorant as I am when it comes to the origins of the universe whether you admit it or not. Because you have no way to substantiate the claims of your so called holy book.

There is nothing people will not maintain when they are slaves to superstition
