Well said. I'm personally an atheist but the importance of religion in a socio-evolutionary sense is obvious to me. Most people who identify themselves as atheist, I find, have little desire to implement critical thinking or logical reasoning. To them religion is an easy target for ridicule and nothing more. A perfect example is the 'mythical Jesus' crowd. The evidence for a historical Jesus is stronger than most other readily accepted historical figures. Just because the 'mythical Jesus' idea serves an anti-theist agenda doesn't mean its right. Accepting it as such is just as stupid and delusional as believing in an invisible sky man.
