This is an honest question: is the cause of atheism not something greater than oneself?

This argument could be made for all sorts of things, such as the French Revolution under King Louis XVI. People under that gave themselves up for the cause of equality under the government in terms of taxes and other political aspects. Giving oneself up for something greater doesn't have to be giving oneself up for a god.

I don't understand people who give in to something greater without any knowledge at all that that "great power" exists. You may as well be "giving yourself up" to a unicorn.
