Plus, I would find it more beautiful if the universe happened without divine intervention. Inanimate mass from some astronomical explosion combined together to make the first galaxies and suns, then the planets and eventually resulted in us. And here we are, sitting at our computers pondering, "Who are we? Where'd we come? Where are we going? What do we wear there?"

I agree... how uncreative must our "supreme deity" be to just magically whisk everything into existence as it is now. In my mind, it really does this deity a huge disservice to ignore all the inner workings of the universe and believe its all just not real. My parents are deeply catholic, and my father in particular loves learning about science. The more and more we understand about just how complicated everything is, from evolution to quantum mechanics, I would think it would make one more in awe of their supreme creator's power and amazed at his creation... and this is really how my father feels. Instead many just brush it under the rug and say it couldn't have happened that way because it contradicts with how they have
chosen to interpret an extremely vague religious text.
