Is this like a sentence completion game?

Someone needs a bigger/better shoehorn. 'I know god fits in here, if I can somehow just wedge it in'.

A creator god is unnecessary. Trying to use science to help prop up a religious belief is silly. But if your belief makes you feel better then what ever gets you thru your life is all right. I just won't validate it.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

IKR? Gods is magic, it says so right on the packaging. Outside of spacetime, able to perform all manner of science-defying feats. Science is the answer to godism, not the explanation for it.

Wow! You have a more closed mind than the 'believers'. I wish I could be there to watch you make that last wish, considering how much confidence you display now.

I know it can be challenging for theists here, one of the reasons that is, is because so many of them take a morbid interest in our demises. It's weird and offputting. As an aside and nitpick, 'atheist' needn't be capitalized.

Indeed. Science has been correcting or invalidating religious thought/belief for centuries. It's kind of sad that religions hold on some minds makes them jump thru these ridiculous attempts at rationalization.
