Bacon's Essays 16 (Atheism)

Bacon's Essays 16 (Atheism)

Bonus: 

Way to make it difficult, Bill Nye

Summary: Atheism is dumb.

Commentary:   

For it is a thousand times more credible, that four mutable elements, and one immutable fifth essence, duly and eternally placed, need no God, than that an army of infinite small portions, or seeds unplaced, should have produced this order and beauty, without a divine marshal. The Scripture saith, The fool hath said in his heart, there is no God; it is not said, The fool hath thought in his heart; so as he rather saith it, by rote to himself, as that he would have, than that he can thoroughly believe it, or be persuaded of it. 

This is basically it. The rest is just repeating the same two points in different ways.
