Are you kidding?
I see atheists argue against the "social construct of long ago religions" and all of the traditions that they entail and then you bring up traditions created by societies long ago to DEFEND suicide? As if suicide has some sort of "reason" behind it?
Defending suicide is the ultimate admittance that life has no meaning, which is the biggest flaw in the Atheist arsenal. The idea that because you cannot come up with a reason to live tomorrow means that you might as well kill yourself tonight holds no ground in the argument FOR humanity. Forget reason and logic, those two old and cold biddies yelling at the children to get off of their lawns, humanity wants life, all kinds of it, the happy life, sad life, the poetic life, the boring life, the romantic life, the awkward life, the atheist life, the believers life, the full life, the might-have-been life.
Struggle is growth, struggle is heroic, struggle is what makes women strong and men beautiful. Imagine if your birth happened with no pain or struggle or fear, all you would be is a pretty nice shit. But we are more than that in every way, because we question and observe, we seek beauty in truth and truth in beauty and struggle to grasp both. We look for the the beast in the maze despite all the "Beware Ye Who Enter" warnings and fight the piece of shit with all we got, whatever that may be. Life is climbing Rapunzel's hair and laughing when you get to the top because the doors are locked and you two have all night before the witch gets back, but it doesn't happen without the DAMN CLIMB!
Too much Disney, maybe. But I think I made my point.

". . . let the atheists themselves choose a god. They will find only one divinity who ever uttered their isolation; only one religion in which God seemed for an instant to be an atheist." -G. K. Chesterton
