Why would such a universal and uniquely human hunger [for a god] exist if it were not connected to some opportunity for fulfillment?Creatures are not born with desires unless satisfaction for those desires exists. A baby feels hunger: well, there is such a thing as food. A duckling wants to swim: well, there is such a thing as water. Men feel sexual desire: well, there is such a thing as sex. If I find in myself a desire which no experience in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world.
Francis S. Collins, C.S. Lewis
