They're not unrelated lol. The vast majority of religions are centered around some concept of God. If we don't agree on this concept, there is no discussion, at all. But it's understandable that you would disagree as an atheist, you want to get your religious opponent into messy discussions and a have a lot of religious content to attack, so that you can come out winning.
This is common sense : I can't have a discussion with someone about the contents of a holy book, if they don't believe it's ... holy.
Nonsense. Religious belief and religious behaviour exist whether God exists or not. It’s like saying you can’t make plans for Christmas until you determine whether Santa exists.
