You might think yourself an atheist but you're certainly not a sceptic.
Anyone who calls themselves "atheist" is certainly not a skeptic. With the insanity presented to us in this boundless reality, how can anyone say for certain what does and does not exist? Agnosticism seems the more skeptical stance.
Your hobby is building straw men.
Reality is absolutely not boundless. Learn a little bit about engineering and you'll find out how very bounded it is.
And there's no reason to expect physics to be randomly different in a different distant galaxy.
Is physics wonky at the quantum level? Apparently. Does that mean Vishnu might exist? No.
Don't make stupid assumptions about people. I have an advanced degree in physics. "Boundless" was vague and can apply to many things.
Don't worry mate, there are loads of quacks to keep you company.
Also dumbfucks if this thread is evidence.
