I had a brief look at that link.

I wouldn't word it in quite the way that the previous person did but
I do have to ask why religious people seem to think that atheists are
looking for a reason to believe as if we are "missing" something.

I do not seek a reason to believe in a god and am perfectly at ease
being an atheist.

I hope I live long enough to see the religious reaction to the almost
inevitable discovery of life outside out planet. Their "holy
books" will need a certain amount of revision.

Been a long time since I've read the Bible, but I do recall an
assertion that there are "other houses", taken to mean other
worlds with not just life, but sentient life.

People, and their religions, will adjust as needed. They always have.

I have changed the subject line to more accurately describe their cult.

The appear to be extremists in the faith based science community.

That seems unlikely, at least as regards Jews and Christians. There's
nothing intrinsic in either testament that says there can't be life on
other planets, as long as you're generous in your metaphorical
interpretation. The Church certainly doesn't believe that the Genesis
story has to be revised, just because we've found that it's off by
several billion years.

I think statements such as Jack's are an indicator of how clueless
many athiests are about religion and religious people.

You're right, we don't have a clue. What organized religion offers is
neither spiritual, nor scientifically or mathematically verifiable.

Organized religion is bereft of spirituality and truth.

The verse "In my Father's house, there are many mansions" tends to be
taken simply as implying that in Heaven, apartment dwelling will not be
the norm.

The Bible, taken literally, implies that the starry sky at night is but
a decorative supplement to Earth's night sky.
