According to atheistic bigot Cranius, anyone who seeks a Creator is retarded. Where did this retardation come from? Why did atheistic creation generate malfunctional creatures who pursue a Creator, which is, according to atheistic bigot Cranius, 'retarded'?
Why did evolution produce retarded creatures that chase silly supernatural Gods?
The short answer is that it's easier to believe in a mythology than it is to understand complex scientific theories.
However, I actually think the question you've posed is a really interesting one which is unfortunately overlooked by all of the rational atheists.
Why do so many people instinctively search for or believe in a God? I myself have at times believed in God. Just ridiculing the belief as a crazy one is to sidestep the question, which I think would lead us down interesting roads if we stuck with it.
I think that, as a psychological issue, it is packed with lots of interesting things to be discovered. For example, I tend to think that our aesthetic sense and our urge to use our imagination are very akin to what religious believers feel. My enjoyment of reading a novel is a direct psychological descendant of peoples' enjoyment of the Bible thousands of years ago. The only difference is that, today, we can differentiate reality from fiction. But when you read the novel, you are still caught up in that fictional world. I don't see this as all that different from being an acolyte of a mythology or of a conspiracy theory.
