Most humans aren't too logical when it comes to world views and how to go about it.

At any rate, how much time we invest in study of religion over other things in life is not a matter of reason per se.

If you wish to show me that I erred, you must understand my path, and show where I erred.

You are shifting the burden of proof.  Atheists have no burden of proof if we are not making the assertions that God exists, that he has a path, that he has holy books, etc.

Assertions are not enough.  Arguments are not enough.  Only convincing evidence is enough, evidence consistent with other things we know.

So yes, it is a matter of reason.

You erred by thinking that your interpretations equal realities.  If that was true, everyone would be right no matter how much they disagreed with each other.
