Creed: Life, The Universe, and Everything (as taken from Douglas Adam's book: Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy.) "Forty-two," said Deep Thought, with infinite majesty and calm. "The Answer to the Great Question, of Life, the Universe and Everything"

As an atheist I find this statement apropos to my beliefs. It pretty well covers it all! As such: Q "And so, what do you believe in?", A "Life the Universe and Everything".

I also look at this whole 'how did we get here' question as an 'infinite question', meaning a question with no provable, substantial, or factual data to support an answer - thus a question or thought/thinking without end.

To satisfy those folks that need to provide themselves with an answer to the proverbial question 'how did we get here', the following should satisfy those on both sides of the isle: Atheist and believer in God. ('He' being however you wish to perceive)

He came upon a great void. It was vast and unpopulated, blank and without form or substance. He spoke and said, "I shall give this place substance and life, and make it beautiful. It shall persist and expand to fill this vastness." Upon a clap of his hands substance was sent forth, objects started to form, light began to fill the void, life began (life: this includes everything, atoms, molecules, gas, dust, planets, suns, etc.)- he observed and was satisfied. He spoke and said, "I shall call this a Universe".--Rfrose (talk) 18:01, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

The above does not work for me as such as there is still a 'He' involved. I lean more to the world of infinitism[].

I am satisfied with the knowledge that I will never have the answer to 'How did we get here, how did it all start'. I exist, I propagated, I cease to exist. --Rfrose (talk) 18:01, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

That's all there is to it (just like everything else in this Universe). This doesn't help those that need more but there you have it anyway.
