Crash, what other premise did it serve?
To learn. Some people actually get off on learning new things and unwrapping the easter eggs buried in our universe.
Perhaps they were buried by your god; perhaps that's just the nature of the universe. We are still interested in learning whatever the ultimate cause of it all is. It has been demonstrated to you that theists and non can all have this desire to solve the riddles.

Another thing you can't seem to grasp is that many non-theists just don't give a moments thought to god in any given day. They do not care one wee little bit about disproving you ideas. I have known some who are researchers, both believing and not, and theological questions enter their minds very, very rarely.
It may be something central to your thinking but, understand this: most just don't care! Not a bit, zip, nada. It is only when forced upon them that they bother. Leave them alone and they will leave you alone. Do not start a reason and fact war when you are unarmed.
There is, on the part of some, a desire to show you to be wrong. Most just don't care. Amongst researchers those who give a darn are even rarer; they don't have time.
