I was born an atheist and have been my entire life.
The only reason I am one is that everyone's claims on gods have fallen short of my (very, very low) expectation of evidence. I don't think atheism equates to skepticism, rational or reason, though they might be attributes that a lot of atheists have.
However I do agree somewhat with your point about the condemnation of people simply because they are religious. Sure their beliefs are generally quite silly but often they're just normal people who've probably been brought up in a religion.
