And. Knowing how it has taken us about 200 years to get where we are now scientifically, why do we not find any traces of any civilisations on Earth until about 6000 years ago?
And. Where did all the water come from?
And. How did life come to Earth?
Why are we concious and is it even possible?
Why is everything around us beautiful and harmonic and lifeforms so rational in their functionality, yet so incredibly advanced even in it's most primitive forms?
atheists are just as arrogant as theists.
For an atheist God may simply mean perplexing order in the universe
Secondly, Sciene without religion is dangerous also, this leads to the acts of Nazi Germany.

Agnostic is a problematic term for some atheists because it implies a 50/50, maybe there is a god, maybe there isn't. A good illustration; you probability wouldn't say that you are agnostic about the existence of the Great Martian Unicorn; even though you can't possibly know it doesn't exist you would probably say you don't believe in it. Same goes for many atheists and the idea of a god.

This was of thinking led to the sterilization of poor and ethnic minority people. They thought that they would have inferior offspring.
i would anser "define god" and take it from there
Also, I wouldn't say atheists' lives revolve around disproving god; mine doesn't! It's just a position taken in response to the possibility of a god. If someone says “do you believe in god” you either have to say yes, I don't know, or no.

Questions like that can easilly be calculated to show some atheist bias, but when talking of probability you need an intelligent force put into the paradoxes that arise. It's just as simple as that.

[sarcasm]And remember folks: A Christian scientist is always biased while Atheists are not. What a load of bullcrap.[/sarcasm]
