The idea that a transcendent "someone" is watching over you, is very comforting. Most of the atheists I've dealt with, seem to have an inner struggle taking place within them, that renders them incapable of finding true, metaphysical rest. Even the happy atheist girl I know, is very promiscuous, to the point of absurdity.
Any ‘inner struggle’ atheists have is likely to be due to a lifetime of being inculcated in dangerous, harmful, stupid religious beliefs.
