As a side note, theists get offended when someone claims that atheists are more informed than them, and then they ask questions like where morality comes from in society.
Religion is keeping you in the dark.
So, for everything in society or nature that you think that "God" is the answer just means that you are in the dark about that topic and that you need to read up about it.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
