Why does matter form itself into organized structure?

This is like asking "Why is water wet?" It is because of the properties of matter and energy and the way various forms of these interact with the laws of chemistry and physics. Nothing more.

Throughout the universe, we see a continual pattern of birth, life, death, regeneration and so on and so forth.

Yeah, so what? Things live, procreate, and die. No gods involved.

Please, don't compare this subject to that of mythical creatures

The whole point is that to atheists, gods ARE mythical, like Athena and Jupiter and the FSM.

Oh, and since you assert something so conclusive, would you care to offer evidence of such a claim?

I assert this in the same way that I would assert that there is no tooth fairy. It is inherently, simplistically obvious to me that it is true. There are an infinite number of such things that do not exist; I have no intention of wasting my time trying to prove infinite numbers of negatives. It is up to theists to prove me wrong.
