Which still opens the doors for all kinds of bullshit. If it were even true, that is. There are all sorts of wishful thinking approaches for atheists as well. Just not in the god avenue. But that's the only one being closed. That's why atheism in itself doesn't offer anything at all.
The difference is that between still being normally susceptible to contracting the debilitating disease, and being always encouraged to, bullied, forced, cajoled into, actively seeking to contract the debilitating disease.
