The concept of god is necessary to put a himan face on the reflection of 
the mystrious Universe in men's minds, so that when they gaze at it, and 
teh only bits they recognize as faintly familiar , are their own 
reflections, they don't get frightened to death.

Atheism is for those who have the courage to see it as it really is.. 
Religion is just the kiddy bedtime story copout.
