All an Atheist needs to do is ask religion to provide evidence. Atheists don't need to provide proof or back up their assertions. Not sure I understand what you mean by that.

Point 2, quoted, I just don't agree I believe that is any rational person's duty, let alone one who says they love nerds, to seek the truth. And to teach. You can't just rest on a lazy philosophers argument that you "win" the "debate". If that works sure, if you can teach with it sure, but you really have to do more if you can. It is really more like as your grandchildren are standing on the shoulders of your children who are standing on your dead body sunk into the muck we came from, what will you have given them?
Point 3, ya always encouraging to see religious people acting righteous, for a change.
