Re: "Locking a heated debate is stupid. Here is the really short..."
@yingfan
Nice post.
I do agree with you here.
Atheists tend to experience the world as to how we find answers to questions, even about other celestial things that are floating billion miles away. When a religious person calculates or reasons himself to an important discovery, he becomes part of that same scientific progress.
Most axioms of populations (atheists and theists included) tend to favor social traits because otherwise humans cannot coexist. So yes, "you shall not kill eachother" is a trait shared among most groups and friendships, because killing eachother most likely ends up losing everything. However, we do see that sometimes religion is the cause (or used) for killing.
There is however a deeper level, which most atheists seem to ignore. I try to reason using that deeper level.
I have tought up of a new way of describing it.
An atheist tends to observe the world and recognize a certain predictability. This predictability somehow passes trough every single layer of our reality.

Locking a heated debate is stupid. Here is the really short summary of the whole ordeal: — Summary of the discussion in @stack his thread between him and me: @Stack posts, claiming he is atheist but thinks people shouldn't degrade religion or theists People, including me, react. I state that religion stands apart because it doesn't follow logic. He states that logic isn't required and that it does not make religion "bad" I disagreed because acting(belief) with a lack of logic causes...
