I do think for myself and especially on my life all religions had a terribly negative effect on me. It pains me to even think that bullshit like that still exists in an age of enlightenment.

Christian religions are constantly trying to meddle in politics that affect my life, Islam is trying to kill me directly and while I'm not much affected by Hinduism and Shinto I know those aren't that well like in their respective states either. Generally it affects me by throwing my sense of justice out of whack since one crazy person who talks with imaginary people will be sent to a medical institution, while another crazy person who talks with imaginary people will get tax breaks and special state protection and for some reason major political power.

Common sense and basic science that are meant to advance humanity are constantly under attack by people who are allowed to say thinks like "you cannot disprove my god because my god cannot be disproven. Now give me tax breaks and political power because I believe in that arbitrary thing that cannot be proven". Yes, it affects my life and that of millions of others exclusively negatively.

Well, sorry to tell you that your enlightment positivism probably killed more people then Christianity ever did. And when I say science can't prove or disprove God, it's because that's actually very sensible. Sorry that it affects a lot of people negatively, but the vast majority of humanity benefitted from it positively.If you think you can just take a dump on religion without pushback. I'm sick and tired of hardline atheïsts telling me whats good or wrong and what exists or don't. You people don't hold any more truth then we do. And I personally have had a lot of ground to doubt atheïst morals even exist. It always relies on an externel system, often even based on religious morals.

Atheism doesn't have morals or any agenda for that reason. It's a way of thinking based on reality. The rules and agendas made up by atheists are theirs alone. Atheism isn't a religion with a doctrine and people who are atheist are as unique and different as any other person.

The big difference in religion and atheism is within a statement.

Atheism: I think we should do this because my thinking had brought me to that conclusion.

Religion: I think we should do this because there is an invisible man in a cloud watching and judging us.

If there are atheists that are assholes then that's their decision. At least they cannot blame their actions on a higher power and have to be responsible for their actions. Religious assholes however will use some doctrine as an excuse. A doctrine that for some reason is arbitrarily protected from other doctrines.
