Where did the universe come from? Atheistic origin science has no answer.

Here, let me help you: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_sharpshooter_fallacy

Quote:The Texas sharpshooter fallacy is an informal fallacy which is committed when differences in data are ignored, but similarities are stressed. From this reasoning a false conclusion is inferred.[1] This fallacy is the philosophical/rhetorical application of the multiple comparisons problem (in statistics) and apophenia (in cognitive psychology). It is related to the clustering illusion, which refers to the tendency in human cognition to interpret patterns where none actually exist.

Except that I proved that the golden ratio is a repeated pattern that does exist.
Did you not watch the video of the mathematician explaining the fibonacci sequence?
Still don't see how this applies.

What is the ratio between my thumb and big toe? Not the golden ratio.
What is the ratio between my forearm and shin? Not the golden ratio.
What is the ratio between my nostril and ear canal? Not the golden ratio.
What is the ratio between my my spine and skull ? Not the golden ratio.
What is the ratio between my knee cap and hat size? Not the golden ratio.
What is the ratio between my ring finger and index finger? Not the golden ratio.
What is the ratio between my testicles and sperm? Not the golden ratio.

You are engaged in the Sharpshooter Fallacy. That is a partial list of your misses.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.
