I'd respoond to that poster the same way I;m responding to you Dawud - something else is required, between "I don't believe" and "I don't go to churches".
I don't believe, but I do go to churches. Particularly when they need my smoker for some badass pulled pork sammys (and their wallets are open).
"Theists have done awful things" is -in what way- related or dependent upon atheism? How does it follow? I'll help you, in no way - and it doesn't. Regardless of whether or not you believe (in gods) that position can be held (and in fact is - by maltheists - who believe that there is a god, but that the god and it;s adherenants are abjectly evil).

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
