Ideological Consistency
Funny or infuriating to you? It's a song, not a thesis, please enjoy. That being said, I want to emphasize that I have no beef with agnostics (basically “I don’t believe, but who knows?”). This song is satire of the hard-line atheist who (in my experience) often exhibit many of the same traits they profess to hate in religious zealots.
We don't have complete information, and our analysis methods are imperfect. Claiming there is only one plausible conclusion to reach from the limited data we have (further limited by imperfect filtering) is misguided at best.
For just one example, asserting that the universe operates exactly as you would expect if there is no god is problematic. To make this claim, you would need to:
1 - Know (not just assume) there has never been divine influence (e.g. that the big bang was definitely not an act of God).
2 - Accurately model what divine intervention would look like and verify that no such intervention is ever present anywhere (which would only be possible if a mortal could accurately model all possible gods and with complete accuracy establish the causal link of every event in the universe, which is impossible).
You can make assumptions, but don't present them as facts. I'm simply asking for more humility in these discussions.
Note: I don’t expect many to read this in the description, It’s mostly so that I can just copy/paste to the comments as the need arises.

Lyrics:
Think for yourself just like me.
It’s an axiom
On which we can agree
That if there’s a god
Though that’s unlikely,
An all knowing force
That sees eternity
Would obviously
think just like me.
Yes I’m an atheist.
I’m free from delusion.
And life has no meaning
Because I’ve drawn that conclusion.
Don’t believe in things
that are stupid.
Every claim is disputed.
Data weighed and computed.
Humility excluded.
I’m not asking much
For my loyalty.
Just a god that I feel
Is truly worthy of me.
I have faith in science.
I have faith in my brain.
I follow the evidence,
Except when it’s lame.
‘Cause I’m an atheist
A bit nihilist
And life literally
Doesn’t get any better than this
Every religion,
Is just more of the same,
And my bad experience,
Trumps all counterclaims
Because if some A’s are B’s
Then all those A’s are B’s
That’s a razor of mine
And I use it religiously
I have faith in science
I have faith in my brain
I follow the evidence
Except when it’s lame
‘Cause I’m an atheist
Rather nihilist
And life literally
Doesn’t get any better than this
I’m based in evidence,
I believe what I see.
The only legitimate type of inquiry
Is one with no hint of deity.
Like multiverse or string theory,
Dark Matter and Dark Energy
Can’t test them empirically
But there’s math so that’s good enough for me
Yeah math is good enough for me!
I’m an atheist
I’m free from delusion
The world has no meaning
Because I’ve drawn that conclusion
I have faith in science
I have faith in my brain
I follow the evidence
Except when it’s lame
You know I love logic
‘cause its clear to see
I’d rather be depressed
Than see things differently
And all my sins
will simply cease to be
Slowly washed away
by my savior Entropy
I know what you’re thinking
I know what you’ll say
Maybe I’ll change my mind
Maybe I’ll pray
You hope I’ll get wiser
As time wastes away
Open my heart
And let the Spirit have sway
Might seem rational
To broaden my experiments
Forsake and forgive
All disparagements
Maybe truth is more
Than just a fact to know
Maybe I just need
Hope for something to grow
But until then…
I’m an atheist
Yes quite nihilist
And Life literally
Doesn’t get any better than this
I have faith in science
I have faith in my brain
I follow the evidence
Except when it’s lame
It’s an axiom
On which we can agree
That if there’s a god
Though that’s unlikely,
An all knowing force
That sees eternity
Would obviously
think just like me
‘Cause I’m an atheist
Yes, I’m, “A” theist
And Life literally
Doesn’t get any better
No, Not any better
It just can’t get better than this
How could it get better than this?
