I wouldn't compare Terrapin to an insect, far from it. He is just not flexible or open to what exists beyond his notion of what is perceived as the physical realm. He is working from what he would consider a logical pov, within his own limitations and belief thinking that he is an atheist. No matter which way he looks at it, the thought still contains a notion of God, which has an understanding about a belief in God, in order to refute God. That's the choice he made. It isn't as if the ability were denied to him. It's just that existence beyond the material is too big a lump to go down his prideful throat. I guess each to their own, and one can't force an understanding down someone's throat. I don't condemn other's beliefs regarding what God is, or isn't, but it they want to bury their head in the sand and then expect others to buy or follow along with their own limitations and lack of self-awareness, then perhaps yes, they do need to keep their egoistic pride in check.
