Here is a list of what can only be called 'delusions', IF this is a godless universe :
1. There is a God
2. God Created everything and everyone
3. There is a soul
4. There is an absolute moral code
5. There is a heaven and hell
6. Love is a spiritual experience
7. Life has purpose and meaning
8. God has ordained gifts and duties for man
9. 'Good' and 'bad' are Real and Absolute
10. God is good
11. God loves you
12. God created you for a purpose
13. God has embedded each soul with a conscience
14. The choices you make in life have eternal consequence
15. Angels and devils are real beings
16. There exists a spiritual dimension
I'm sure there are more.
Why do people have these delusions, if indeed, this is a godless universe?
Why do some atheists retain some of these delusions?
What natural processes would impart such wholesale delusions, on the majority of human beings, in every culture, region, and era?
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it. ~Aristotle
