I am a firm believer in the Big Bang, evolution, and natural selection. My issue with everything is that I continue to think there is a purpose for this matrix we are in. This isn't about some bored God wanting to be worshiped or idolized.
If someone was able to shrink you to the size of a neutrino (While keeping you alive), what would you see?
Would your surroundings look as massive as the universe is to us?
I look at the universe as an operating system (With laws) that plays as a sand box for many different possibilities of galaxies, stars, planets, and forms of life.
I am very open to the mystery of our universe except nothing to do with "God" or the "Creator" at all, what crazy ideas have you thought of lately?
What of we are an alien lab project under a telescope and what if our universe is tiny outside the universe?
I think, therefore I am an entity capable of convincing myself I can think. That's as far as I ever got.

"I think I use the term “radical” rather loosely, just for emphasis. If you describe yourself as “atheist,” some people will say, “Don’t you mean ‘agnostic’?” I have to reply that I really do mean atheist, I really do not believe that there is a god; in fact, I am convinced that there is not a god (a subtle difference). I see not a shred of evidence to suggest that there is one ... etc., etc. It’s easier to say that I am a radical atheist, just to signal that I really mean it, have thought about it a great deal, and that it’s an opinion I hold seriously." - Douglas Adams (and I echo the sentiment)
