As I type this, I’m downloading the free trial of the Spore Creature Creator.

Spore, for those of you not in the know, is the forthcoming open-ended simulation game by mad genius Will Wright, the man behind SimCity and The Sims. To quote Wikipedia, Spore “allows a player to control the evolution of a species from its beginnings as a unicellular organism, through development as an intelligent and social land-walking creature, to levels of interstellar exploration as a spacefaring culture.” In other words, it’s a game by godless atheists, for godless atheists!

Loads of fun, obviously.
