And consequently - we don't demand that the entire world bows down before our imaginary friend and adheres to his "will". And yet the believers do... We don't demand tax-exempt status for our organizations. The believers do... We don't waste a lot of time making sniveling yet insincere apologies for arbitrary transgressions, to invisible tyrants, existence of which cannot be proven. The believers - do... We don't beg supernatural forces for help with our personal problems and responsibilities. The believers, of course do.
We do however treat this life as if it's the only one we have and try to postpone death as much as possible. So do the believers, oddly enough... In fact - the believers do everything that atheists do - and then some exclusive stuff with no evident positive consequences, like praying, building worship sites, protesting against freedom of speech, etc.
So what are we supposed to prove to you? That you should wear seat-belts and look around before crossing the street, because god is not going to protect you and when you die - it's game over? Well, you guys seem to have figured that out by yourselves...
