I wouldn't say only atheists. It all depends on you. Looking at other possibilities and having the will to throw away old beliefs and to adopt new ideas to me is a demonstration of just how bright and rational beings we can be.
There may be a god. Perhaps there isn't. What matters is how do we go about finding out? Instead of assigning the belief that there is one, ask yourself, what suggests that there is one?
All I can say for myself is that I want to know what's true, what's real. If it be a god, I can accept that. If it be something completely different I can accept that too. Why? Because I want the truth, nothing less.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
