I mean, maybe some of them are stupid, but of course not all of them are, or even most of them. What I'm saying is, an atheist is not automatically stupid, or crazy, or any other perjorative term, just for not believing in God. Personally I think not believing in God is foolish, but different people are different people, and I could never (rightfully) judge anyone for not believing in God. Miles' attitude is overly persecutory, even if I think he makes a lot of good points.
Meanwhile, in mere reality.... there are tons of actual people who could actually hurt you, and neither you nor I seem to be tripping over ourselves to join their clubs on account of that, let alone on account of their mere existence.
And the only reason God doesn't just erase you (or me) is because He knows He can use our lives for the greater good.
