Well, [atheism] may be scary at first (it really is), but when you think about it, that means that all of this; our planet, our moon, our star and the trillions of lifeforms crawling everywhere, are all brilliantly interconnected. Our home is the heroic survivor of a collision from the black, as evidenced by the Moon. Our star is a nuclear furnace, powering our weather, our plants, and ultimately, our very bodies. We’re brothers and sisters to other apes, cousins of the cats and dogs, distant relatives of spiders and crocodiles, and all children of exploding stars, showering us with the ingredients for life. We aren’t just beings placed here in a tailor-made Universe. We are the Universe, brought alive through chance and power, of conflict and an endless string of love; our only purpose to huddle together on a sea-soaked rock hurtling through time and space as we live our lives and learn about ourselves and our origins. That, to me, is so much more fucking beautiful than any god could ever make it. There’s nothing that could compare. A godless Universe isn’t scary. It’s amazing.

You know, an equal argument can be made in favour of a God made universe, especially when considered that many Christians agree with atheists on the workings of the universe, but not necessarily the creation. Just sayin’
