That is because in reality, 1. many people actually blame lack of religion and by extension atheists for most of the world's crime and violence, and 2. in actuality religion is responsible for much of the world's violence.
You're a damn christian dude!
Thank you, I realize much more than you can imagine, I do not let others cloud my views.
You don't let others cloud your views or are you so myopic that you can't listen to anyone's argument that differs from your own? Take a look at the world around you and it's history for a second. The Christian Church has done as much harm as it's done good, to say the least. An entire millennium of progress slowed in Europe and the enslavement and subjugation of many native peoples of Asia, Africa, Europe and The Americas were committed by professed Christians. Furthermore, if your god is omnipotent, why can't he address the problem of evil? If he's all powerful why not just will a Hitler, Stalin or a Mussolini out of existence? Could have saved his "beloved creation" a lot of trouble in doing so!
