Atheist; // you are also taking the existence of 'laws' [of nature] as a self-evident fact.//
Of course I am, & within the confines of contemporary scientific knowledge they are.
For example the 'law of Gravity' is contingent because it depends on physical mass, remove that & there is no gravity, (that's why astronauts in space float about).
But that has nothing to do with the human condition & religion, the key to which, God is not understood through purely metaphysical speculation & rationality alone, but also by communion with our fellow human beings, something to which your materialistic outlook must find incomprehensible.
All religions encompass three basic components; the teacher, the teaching and the religious community.
