== The agnostic Ron Rosenbaum on atheism and the origin of the universe ==
The agnostic Ron Rosenbaum wrote in ''Slate'' about atheism and the origin of the universe:
{{Cquote|Atheists display a credulous and childlike faith, worship a certainty as yet unsupported by evidence—the certainty that they can or will be able to explain how and why the universe came into existence. (And some of them can behave as intolerantly to heretics who deviate from their unproven orthodoxy as the most unbending religious Inquisitor.)
Faced with the fundamental question: "Why is there something rather than nothing?" atheists have faith that science will tell us eventually. Most seem never to consider that it may well be a philosophic, logical impossibility for something to create itself from nothing.<ref>[http://www.slate.com/articles/life/the_spectator/2010/06/an_agnostic_manifesto.html An Agnostic Manifesto] by Ron Rosenbaum, ''Slate''</ref>}}
