Well, atheists may be wiser than you think, as well as the religious who accept the overwhelming evidence for evolution.
False equivalence. You can meet the cook, you can't meet the imaginary deity. You can taste the cook's food, you can't call for divine manna or for magic honey tasting scrolls to manifest and taste them. You know that a prepared food has a history of preparation, was made by someone, was a recipe imagined by a human, etc. More equivalent would be the fact that both plants and animals (including humans) reproduce, they can serve as ingredients in the recipe. Your parents are still humans, though.
In the case of life, we know some of the history, for instance that it diversified and evolved through natural processes like descent with modification and natural selection, but we still can't see evidence of directed creation or of design, of the type humans imagined in their mythology that also includes deities humans imagined. Instead we see a lot of evidence of adaptation resulting in the animals today including us, that includes suboptimal features due to adaptation, but also well fitted features to reproduce and survive and in some areas built-up complexity that are all best explained by evolution.
So your statement sounds like ignorant arrogance and the promotion of obscurantism. Besides, since the evidence of evolution is really overwhelming, many educated and religious have no problem with the facts of nature. Religious doctrines have long been resisting every discovery showing humans to not be the center of the universe. When it's obvious that we're not, due to incredible evidence showing otherwise, large mainstream religions that remained relevant tend to accept facts of nature, including evolution, like Catholicism today.
When you're part of a group that wants you to reject well established knowledge, it may also be an indication that it wants to isolate you from the world and control and exploit you. That may also be evidence of dishonesty and perhaps even malice, meaning that assuming that a deity really existed, it may not agree with the doctrine either. Why would it create a world that we can discover interesting facts about, but torment you for accepting those facts instead of what some ancient ignorant humans wrote and what intellectually dishonest propagandists preach? There's no need to fear knowledge, it can actually in many cases free you from the grip of deceptors.
