What most atheists don't understand about religion: the introductory mythology is not a statement about the origin or nature of the physical universe. It is also not the specification of the God that is being installed on the host mind. It is the boot loader.
The "God of the Gaps" is a coarse mythology. It's only done by basic cults. Even the Catholic church gave up on it. The myth has become allegorical and not allegorical at the same time, so people with trained rationality can briefly squint at it without freaking out.
