Regarding religion, or lack thereof, why do people make assumptions of people's beliefs? Not all theists believe in the same tenets of their religion as someone else. What if someone were to pick and choose? Or if an atheist has moderate or extreme views on the question of the existence of a divine force?
The point is, while different sections (Muslims, Atheists, Christians, etc.) of the question fight each other, hurling insults, they fail to realize that not everyone falls into the same category, the same mold of the atheist or theist. And don't say that they do.
For and example, I'll use myself, which I hate to do. Most atheists' beliefs are claimed to be based on logic. My belief in God is also based on logic.
And immediately, I'm sure someone will say, "It's all fairy-stories! Floods? Whatever! Resurrections? Sure, okay!" but that's not the basis.
There must be something more to the world; flesh, blood, and bone are too basic; it's too cold. Atheism is too negative.
