If I were an Atheist

[Tonus]

You say these facts aren't compelling.

I did not say that those facts are not compelling.  I said that claiming that it looks like the work of a creator based on emotional or circular reasoning is not compelling.  Restating the fact that the universe exists and life exists within it does not make the claims any more compelling.  Telling me that I see things differently because of an inherent bias is actually working backwards: I was a theist, and thus had to work past that bias in order to realize that there isn't one.  The notion that some powerful being created all of reality is not falsifiable, since you can appeal to his power and qualities (and make or edit these as needed to cover any explanation).  The notion that it all came to be through some unguided process is not, but as yet there has been no smoking gun that shows us that it could not have happened, but there seems to be lots of evidence pointing at how it might have happened.

And of course, this can all be made moot the moment god shows up and explains that yes, he created it all.  Seeing as men have been waiting for that moment for some 2,000+ years now, I am not going to hold my breath.
