Atheism is nothing more than a commitment to the most basic standard of intellectual honesty: One’s convictions should be proportional to one’s evidence. Pretending to be certain when one isn’t—indeed, pretending to be certain about propositions for which no evidence is even conceivable—is both an intellectual and a moral failing.

This turns on how one defines "God". Stephen Hawking, though not believing in a personal god, nonetheless uses that word for the uncreated cause of the quantum singularity that was the origin of the big bang.
