I’m a Believer, but I always tell my atheist friends that if they came come up with a more rational explanation for the origin of the universe then I’ll drop God and roll with their side. But they always come up with stuff that still needs a God. Stuff like The Big Bang theory that requires an explosion—which needed a God to cause, started by chemicals—which needed a God to create, that were in motion—which needed a God to facilitate. The very best among the atheists need at least three Gods. I’m cool with just having one.

 

This very eloquently sums up why I can't fucking stand these people. What the fuck is the matter with just saying "I don't know"? "A rational explanation for the origin of the universe"... Que fucking pasa?!? Who (or, rather, what!) do you think that you are? Oh yes that's right. A moron. I.e. someone who postulates something that is essentially unknowable and then goes on to defend his gobbeldygook ad absurdum, even in the face of stark naked evidence for how lethal adopting such a position of arrogant hubris can be in an unstable situation.

It seems that humility before knowledges requires the wisdom to tell the difference between that which is unknown and that which is unknowable. Jumping to beliefs is the act of a coward. It takes more balls - and sobriety - to admit that because you are nothing more than a human monkey there is very little that you can actually know about anything. And in the act of gathering data to piece together a reasonably cohesive map of what we can know, these fucking pieces of shit are not only not helping, they are actively obstructing others who are trying to do the grunt work of gathering data; forming and testing hypotheses, comparing results and painstakingly moving the goalposts for our understanding of life, nature and all that jazz ever so slightly forward, bit by bit, year after year. 

(I'm not even touching the unspeakably bad taste of finding joy in the misery of others because you were spared.)
