Quote: If you wanted to be a true scientist, then you'd acknowledge the question as to why we are here, and at the very least, entertain the only plausible solution put forth thus far by mankind -- that there's a higher being, known as God.
First, science never claimed to be able to or want to answer the question of "why". That is the realm of theologians, and, maybe, philosophers. In addition, to atheists, the question of "why" isn't even a question. There's no guiding force, no intelligence for there to even be a why. It just is. It's like asking "why does water freeze at a certain temperature and pressure". Humanity can explain the methods that cause it to freeze, but expecting us to explain the rationale behind choosing those data is absurd.
Second, why is the Judeo-Islamo-Christian God the only plausible explanation? Certainly there were and are many other religions each with their own creation myths. Just because you were born into a Christian society, all of those other explanations are null and void?
