The theory that a God created humans in some sudden coruscation just a few thousand years ago is ludicrous. In the grand scheme of things, humanity is still very primitive. We haven't moved on a huge deal since the days of cavemen. We're still knocking the shit out of each other; whether it be in expensive international wars or jabbing knives into each other on street corners. Unfortunately, the 'growing up' process for humanity is still a long way off. If we manage not to obliterate ourselves whether with bombs or genetics, then maybe humans can have a more purposeful existence in the vast expanse of this universe.
