I am not a "believer," but I find it interesting that, given a limited chemistry set and some physical laws, a creature arises that can contemplate this existence. "God" has no eyes, so "He" creates them. We are all "God," collectively.

Chaos is order we do not understand, yet. I don't think any of this is random, but I don't believe some separate mythical sky-man did it all. There are greater forces we may never understand.

Nope, valid example. You're struggling to downplay his contributions because he doesn't fit with your narrative.

What of the 93% of scientists in the NAS who are atheists? They are in the NAS in the first place because they're the best of the best. Non-NAS scientists average 60% atheist. Therefore the cream of the crop in science has a higher tendency to be atheistic.

You don't know what that means.

The argument from authority fallacy is when you argue that someone is right because of their position/reputation.

My posts have been in response to someone who suggested that theists comprise all of the most influential scientists in recent history.

Showing that not to be the case by providing examples of the most notable scientists who were in fact atheists is not an argument from authority because it makes no claim as to whether or not they are right, only that they self-identify as atheists.

Of course I had to explain this to you because as a religious person your brain is defective.

Of course it doesn't. It means that the portion of my post you quoted makes you angry because you're religious. That has no bearing on my intelligence.

If you mean to suggest it's an ad hominem, it isn't. Ad hominem doesn't mean any insult issued in an argument, it means substituting insults *for* argument.

It isn't retarded. religiosity correlates negatively with intelligence. Correlation by itself doesn't necessarly imply causation, but if you can corroborate the link with hundreds of studies which use different metrics for intelligence, sample widely from different walks of life and the results are still the same, it can at least authoritatively be said that the religious are on average less intelligent than atheists and have been for as long as we've been studying the relationship.

religiosity is falsely portrayed as affecting those within religion. It also affects cults, singularity and geekdom.

It's basically a suggestion that abstract reality, regardless of how informed it is, causes a feeling of hopefulness and 'one' with the information.

At the end of the day, the object of religiosity is arbitrary.

The Universe was designed to act exactly as it does:
"Yea, the sparrow hath found an house, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O LORD of hosts, my King, and my God." Psalm 84:3

"Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God." Luke 12:6

If you are good at math, please calculate the neutron flux needed for diamonds to show C-14 ages of 30,000 years, and you will know radiometric dating and uniformitarian geology is essentially flawed.
http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0168583X07002443

In fossil fuels

"Most man-made chemicals are made of fossil fuels, such as petroleum or coal, in which the carbon-14 should have long since decayed. However, such deposits often contain trace amounts of carbon-14 (varying significantly, but ranging from 1% the ratio found in living organisms to amounts comparable to an apparent age of 40,000 years for oils with the highest levels of carbon-14).[16] This may indicate possible contamination by small amounts of bacteria, underground sources of radiation causing the 14N(n,p) 14C reaction, direct uranium decay (although reported measured ratios of 14C/U in uranium-bearing ores[17] would imply roughly 1 uranium atom for every two carbon atoms in order to cause the 14C/12C ratio, measured to be on the order of 10−15), or other unknown secondary sources of carbon-14 production."
