GUEST of 6:06-An explanation of the universe is better if it is more likely to be true. I don't know about you, but I find it easier to reconcile string theory, bizarre as it might be at times, than the notion that some omnipotent, omnibenevolent deity created the universe, then allowed or caused it to become filled with suffering. Existentialism doesn't even have a point as far as I can see; if I feel good and bad emotions as a result of actions that take place in the world, what does it matter whether, in some abstraction of the universe, those actions "really" occurred?
