say what? (The atheist delusion)

To posit that "believing" is just as rational as "not believing" is, IMHO, just silly.-You mention, among other things, that the complexity of the universe might reasonably lead one to "believe".-The flaw in that is simply that a creator would need to be more complex than the creation, and of course, the big one: where then, did the creator come from? If our complex universe requires a creator then so too does its creator and so on to infinity.-I think atheists likely have it right, but I refer to myself as agnostic simply because I don't claim I can prove that no god exists, but I see no "reason" for believing that one does.-This is absolutely not the same thing as giving equal credulity to both sides of the fence, which is what seems to be the point in this forum (but I could be wrong about that).
