Quite the contrary! Absurdism is always a possibility. It is what I consider one of the main existential stances, just as one can believe that we live in a rationally ordered universe. No one knows for sure...maybe there is a deep order always beyond our ken or maybe its all just random chance. Those are faith based positions.
So think about what the skeptical position above is advocated for in order remain against the theistic position. They are suggesting that logic can be illogical because physics does not entail a rational order. And they have the conceit to present this as the rational position. To me it sounds like cleverly disguised absurdism.
Read the Poverty of Agnosticism in Professor Richard Dawkins' the God Delusion; few atheists are in Category 7, absolutely certain that there is no god.
