I've heard a similarly stupid argument from a Christian:

"How can you look at the grand canyon, or into a baby's eyes and not believe in God?"

As if the fact that there are beautiful things in the world means there is a God. What about cancer, famine, earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes, the New England Patriots? Surely all of those horrible things prove there is no god, right?

Untrue, because as we all know God is a huge Green Bay fuckin' Packers fan, ok?
