How do Atheists counter the Argument From Reason?

If there is no 'entity' providing us with reliable reasoning.
then human minds are merely the result of evolution.

Evolution does not select for complete objective truth, it selects for what can help us survive, maybe it hit the truth maybe it did not, point is, then our reasoning is unreliable and we cannot even trust ourselves/arguments, and that worldview with no source providing rationality is self-defeating.

But a view with God as a source of rationality and objective truth has a reasonable foundation.

Well if I start amassing downvotes I'm just going to delete this post...

If our thoughts are SIMPLY the result of accidental, physical causes (like neurons firing at random), we have no reason to trust them as true.

Then, Human rationality requires a rational source (God) to exist, otherwise you would have no logical basis to trust or rely on your senses to make any arguments.

Accuracy is required to survive, but only to a certain extent.
We just needed to see a tiger as dangerous, not necessarily as any other thing, the atheist worldview suggests we could be living in a world that could be a complete illusion.
