I've never understood this aspect of atheism - why does the universe exist according to atheism? I'm not trying to be sarcastic or in favor of God - I really want to know the atheistic perspective on this. Does atheism always adopt a purely scientific perspective about it and subscribe to the current theories of physics about the universe's creation? Does atheism ever attempt to describe why the universe exists?

It was created when a balloon accidentally rubbed itself against a wool blanket. It exists purely by accident and it's the balloon's fault.

Nobody knows the answers to these questions as our intellectual capabilities are not sufficiently developed but religions invent answers that are ludicrous because people must pretend that they know everything.
The fear of the unknown underpins all religion

most don't really care ! there is no issue there as far as they are concerned. Speculation on the causality of being is just so much garbage.
people of many religions also feel this way !
