You've already got all the answers. What do you need from us stupid atheists?
A human being is given the ability to play before others any role, we may imagine, including stupidity (see, for example, the famous great actors, known as politicians).
In a few years, I will be 70. But I never met a sane mature person who is real stupid. On the other hand, I personally met a few people who played very well the role of stupidity and insanity as well. They were doing it even better than the actors at Hollywood may do.
I mean, being an atheist or else has nothing to do with stupidity.
So I am sorry for disappointing you because I am sure you are as intelligent as I am.
But, being equally intelligent doesn't imply having the same priorities in life, hence following the same paths.
Where do you get the stupid idea "atheist" is about threats of "or else"?
Scientific method is not a club label, it is a universal tool. It is a neutral filter to weed out personal bias. It is a method of testing, falsification with control groups and peer review.
No atheist I consider sane makes threats of "or else". We do however question bad claims and bad logic. Some of us are more blunt in doing that than others.
If you want to go around claiming every single day, "The New England Patriots beat the Chicago Cubs in the Stanley Cup" legally by law you are entitled to do so sure, but it would still be a bullshit claim and others would not be required to remain silent if you keep repeating that claim.
You either have FACTS to back up your claims or you don't. If you have FACTS then those FACTS don't need to be protected and can be subject to review, scrutiny, falsification and peer review.
