I believe its wrong to rule out what you have not yet had the chance to discover, but I think its even more wrong to make assumptions and write books on what you have not yet discovered.

its funny how many people consider themselves atheists and then go on to for example drive around saturns and mazdas or exchange rings with their spouses when they marry all without realising the symbolism involved in these activities
then many of the same people turn around and call theists ignorant because of their blind following
Well, beyond the fact that all our knowledge works w/o inserting a God into any of the equations. I find the God(s), of the major (Abrahamic, though I realize Hinduism is pretty dang big also) religions to be abhorrent, and I would reject out of principle, any God who would behave in a manner similar to what is described among the big 3.

What does using items that have symbolism alluding to deities have anything to do with whether or not you are a thiest/athiest? I'm not following your logic here.
Why? Because all religion is a based on a lie.

This has nothing to do with the OP's question, please stay on topic.

yes there is no overt intentional demonstration of worship of a god
but the fact remains that these are all symbols associated with god's of antiquity and atheists blindly adopt them and partake in various rituals without really trying to understand what the origins of these things are
then amusingly to me they bash theists for the same thing for blindly following without analysing
how many atheists for example question why we exchange rings during marriage as opposed to just blindly following the practice?
for the most part none because they have not been told to question the practice
atheist just like theists have been lead

neither does your post so it appears to me like we have a stalemate here

I actually provided substance to the OP's question, you've done nothing of the sort (If that response confuses you, try reading back further). Again, please stay on topic.
I'm actually more of an apatheist. I simply do not care. It is irrelevant to me whether one exists or not.
