(Psst: it isn't supported either.)

Re #41: I have considered the vastness of the universe and the complexity of
life and - so what? There is not an iota of evidence of gods in any of it,
not even as "creators", much less as participants. And for almost the entire
existence of this vast and complex universe the existence of gods was not
even contemplated...until a life form evolved that could imagine such
things. But imagination does not make reality, and the reality is indifferent
to our imagining. 

The argument from vastness and complexity is the argument based essentially
in ignorance. Fortunately, the boundaries of ignorance have been push far back
toward the limits of space and time - and nowhere is there a hint of "gods".
