Not believing in the possibility of there being a higher power
is an indirect belief in there being an explainability and concreteness to the world around us. It's just as 'irrational' as anything else because it's not the sort of thing that can be proven either way.

What is truly stupid is believing so much in any one thing so much that you ignore anything that happens to go against that.
