As Richard Dawkins once said (and this is through memory, so bare with it). If Michael Angelo was not 'sponsored' by religion, there's no limits to the amount of other buildings roofs that could have been majestic.
Yes religion playED a major role, now it doesn't. Thankfully society has moved past religion.
The arts etc, is now done by anyone.
Its not the fact that some atheists may believe in crop circles, or any other silly belief. Its that the BIggest nonsense one of all 'god belief', is what they don't believe in.
Its the non belief in a god that makes them MORE rational. I know this sounds peculiar to you, but its because the god belief causes so much world horror and is forced onto children that makes it so bad. We don't force crop circles onto children or make wars (most by the way) from it!
As for your automatic human behavioral defense mechanisms like: "idiots like you". Not called for, there are younger teens reading and they may think you are right :D
Why are you atheist? (atheists only please)
