Why does it take so many atheists to fix a light bulb when we have so much light during the daytime?

God gave us light or do we have 24 hours of darkness that only religious people don't notice?

Update:

Science never gave us anything, by definition. All it can do is explain what's already there. I really opened the asylum doors, going by the answers I got.

    Well I don't know about you. But where I am when I'm INSIDE, even during the day, it's kind of dark. Especially in my office which has no windows. Lights are required. Does your "god" stream sunlight straight through the roof? Must be nice, I bet that really saves on your electricity bill. Why does your god make it be night time though? Is it so that we know when it's time to go to bed? Why doesn't the sunlight just stream right through the planet like it does through your roof? Oh yeah, the Earth doesn't go around the Sun in your "god's" universe does it?

    Religious people would sell a new light bulb not fix one. Athiests can have many people take their time fixing a bulb because atheism is a non prophet organisation.

    Light comes from the sun during the daytime and from artificial sources of light the rest of the time. It does not come from a god.

    You've never been to Scotland from November till March have you. The Sun and light are distant memories by then.

    Yes we do have more than 24 hours of darkness at the poles. We were given light at night by scientists such as Edison. God(s) not required.

    Well, it depends where you're living. If you're far enough into the north/south, then you'll be getting 20+ hours of darkness or light during certain times of the year.

    This deity of yours (you don't specify which of the hundreds you believe in?) gave us physics and geography too, apparently, so what's your point?

    Typical brainless Christian attempting a joke.

    Not clever, thought provoking or even funny - poor effort.
