I try not to belittle religious people, but rather get them to take a good look at the programming they have been given. If they could just see the totally unrealistic demands most religions place on an individual, perhaps they could begin to question that programming, and live their lives without the fallacies and guilt that are the cornerstone of religion. There comes a great sense of accomplishment and self satisfaction by taking responsibility for one's own actions and achievements in life.
For instance, I cringe every time I see a sports star thank god after an exceptional performance. God had nothing to do with it. This person worked very hard and sacrificed a great deal, their whole life, to EARN that performance.
Don't atheists do what they hate religious people doing?
