Why do atheists deny that they are just biorobots?

I have exactly the same epidemiological stance, apply reason to experience, and yet I reach a different conclusion, i.e. God exists. Why then, is my belief in God a worldview and your opposite conclusion not one? Moreover, having reached that conclusion I can carry that over as the premise of further inquiry. Why are atheists incapable of doing the same?

Your "belief in god" - whether as a conclusion or a premise - is not sufficient to be a worldview. Its a simple belief.

And certainly you can carry over the premise for further inquiry and that is how you build the rest of your worldview. However, the atheistic premise of "no god" isn't at all helpful when it comes to other conclusions. Simply put, a worldview is made of ideas about "what is" and a belief about "what isn't" isn't very helpful in determining things about that.
