Plenty of cults exist - every cult has its 'religious dogma', its idols, its 'prophets', its 'science', its 'proof' and its intolerant liturgy of demands. Cults everywhere: Corona, 'The Science' or Scientism, Islam, the State, the cult of Gender Fascism, Marxism, Darwin and Evolution, Globaloneywarming, Changing Climate, Abortion...

Atheism is as far divorced from reason and science as Gaia-worship; new-age dogma; or the belief that apace men travelling 100.000 light years arrived on earth and sprinkled magic fairy dust to initiate life......There is not much science within Atheism, including its Darwinian-Evolutionary cant better termed an irrational embarassment.
Bunner's book [see here as well], is a powerfully lucid and logical vivisection of Atheism confusion – both moral and mental. As Bunner rightly comments: “...scientific naturalism worldview rejects the existence of free will.” Darwinists, Big-Bang theorists, 'naturalists' all belief that the human is a gigantic 100 trillion cell bag of molecules, kinetic energy, and matter. Ergo, you are just the 'sum' of these physical parts and every thought, action, motion or belief is just a 'random chance' confluence of the physical and chemical. You think therefore you are evolved.
“Atheists claim to be standing tall for “reason,” but their logic is frequently incoherent and illogical. Science attempts to explain our physical world, but must, by definition, remain within the bounds of what can be observed, tested, and measured. It cannot explain belief systems or faith because these are non-material entities that exist only within our consciousness.”
Atheism's world-view denies human originality, thought, creativity, genius, morality, compassion, charity and human kindness. The 'selfish gene' is a naturalist programming set, that you have no control over. A thought is not related to your consciousness but only to luck, fate, or some random variation of electrical-chemical impulses.
Bunner: “The human brain is the most sophisticated “machine” known to exist in the universe. One theory is that the human brain is the human mind, and it evolved via the Darwinian mechanisms of random mutation and natural selection. This notion is problematic for several reasons. First, the brain is matter, and matter has never been demonstrated to think. Second, humans can reason, communicate, remember, recall, and make both objective and subjective decisions, none of which appears to be programmed or controlled by our DNA. Third, we have the ability to observe, to sense, to contemplate, to create...”
Bunner is right. Matter and energy are not the only 'realities' of this world. DNA is immaterial software code and you have billions of lines of such code. Software does not write itself. The mind programs and manages the brain. Your brain is an organ and it can only function with an operator and set of instructions.
“Can light and matter emerge out of true nothingness without a cause, and without a reason?”
Why would a 'big bang' occur and then from the chaos of this explosion, how would scientific ratio's, laws and matter be so perfectly constructed ? Any ideas on how to explain planets, orbits, life or even light lies in the realm of metaphysics not science. You simply have no idea how the universe first formed, nor why it came into existence. It is rather absurd to believe, as Atheists do, that the universe impregnated itself from nothing and then gave birth to something.
“Science has absolutely nothing to do with which conclusion is ultimately reached. That power is held by the discipline of philosophy, which is comprised of models in our consciousness that incorporate concepts and ideas believed to be “true” but which are unable to be observed, tested, or measured.”
Atheism is in short, irrational as well as spiritual-less. It must be a blighted life which believes that the majesty of the cosmos is due to a magical self-impregnation of nothingness; or that pond-scum guided by the god of dialectical luck, became the Climate Change philosopher. Protozoa to people is as daft and non-scientific a dogma as alchemy, panspermia, or abiogenesis.
At the root of the Atheist belief-system is a scurrilous and profound hatred of the human. That is the key to unlock the theological doctrine of those who believe that DNA software code wrote itself, or from physical chaos there comes order.
