Crazy I’ve been thinking about this all day. The big bang alone is a big fuck you from the gods reminding us we’re in an out of context problem.
So I agree, all science has done has helped us to gain a more objective understanding of our shared experience. We still have no idea what the hell is up with the universe, everything above it I guess, is doing existing in the first place.
Thinking through all of this has made me realize as an atheist I haven’t actually been engaging the religious honestly. If this is how they view the universe I and most atheists have been strawmanning them, and what they actually believe, without even knowing.

But debating science is missing the point. No matter the implementation details the fact I’m here looking at a universe is freaking weird. If I wasn’t here a lifeless universe existing would still be weird because wherw does it originate
