I can think of many people I hold in high regard, for various reasons. George Carlin, Groucho Marx, Galileo, Alice Cooper, Anton LaVey, Bill Hicks, Mark Twain, Billy Sheehan. I guess I tend to like people who "push the envelope", regardless of what religion that had, provided they didn't spread so many ideas that I completely and vehement disagree with. I don't really care for martyrs and philanthropists.

I don't believe in holding other humans above the average. Sure they did great things and were probably smarter and stronger than the average man but even they had personality faults.

Lots of people who work to make others' lives better in real way: my grandmother who worked tirelessly to improve the lot of neighborhood women, her suffrage activities, her protection of battered women in the face of irate and violent husbands; her friends who faught in WW1 and 2, my parents' friends who faught in Vietnam.
Explorers who treated natives as actual human beings (e.g. Helge Ingstad) instead of going on slavery expeditions based on some idea that because we are white, we are superior and "god" gave us the right to use other (non-white, non-christian) people.
Doctors (especially Doctors w/o Borders and such), teachers, nurses, artists, scientists... the list is endless. I fail to see the connection to "atheists" here.
