David Attenborough talks about respond to a creationist question about why he does not give credit to God  his documentaries. 

…Attenborough added: "They always mean beautiful things like hummingbirds. I always reply by saying that I think of a little child in east Africa with a worm burrowing through his eyeball. The worm cannot live in any other way, except by burrowing through eyeballs. I find that hard to reconcile with the notion of a divine and benevolent creator.

I’ve always like this guy. And I did not even realize he was an atheist.
