Like the one Karl Marx said he was starting?
Care to quote where Marx said that? And when did Marx start a society anyway?

It's nice for you to give us credit for all of modern physics, but theists did a fair bit, too.

See Greek and Roman civilization and the Enlightenment for the reason. The bits in between were not that impressive in comparison.
That said, sure, theists have accomplished a lot. So have atheists. Our accomplishments were not BECAUSE we were theists (including theists who weren't Christians) and atheists. They were because some of us are smart and creative and diligent in our fields of expertise, regardless of religious belief or a lack thereof.

Yes, to my knowledge there are no secular hospitals or even hospitals founded by atheists that have the word 'atheist' in the name. Surely you don't think that means there aren't any?
