For me, I feel like it's more intellectually honest to say "I don't know" than to assert that there must have been a cause of the universe, which is cause "X," and we'll call that cause "God." If that is the case, it would be possible to call cause "X" any number of things. Besides, if everything has to come from something else, then to say that God is somehow exempted from that rule, or somehow lies outside of the universe, is cheating.

It's annoying to see a huge, multi-million dollar mega church in the same part of town as decrepit, run-down schools. It'd be better to tax the churches and have community events, fund-raisers, and donations at the schools instead.
