It is true that you don't have to be an atheist to work on engineering, atomics, physics, technology and etc. You can make scientific achivement by believing in god and creation too, there is no practical obstacle for that. However when we go to the bottom we see that modern science was born and based upon logical thinking and falsification which is the exact opposite of dogmatic doctrines of religions. For instance it is simply oxymoron to study on a field that is purely based on logic/falsificiation and hold dogmatic believes at the same time.
Yes, in theory, we may assume that a some form entity like "god" exists because we still know very little about our universe and we can't "prove" otherwise. The problem is here is not wheter the "god" is objectively exists or not but is the "god" (or "gods") exists as it is depicted by the popular religions. So far we haven't seen any proof of that and there is simply no reason to desing our lives based on it.

You were saying that one needs a belief to exist in this world and then use an atheist's belief that God doesn't exist as an example but that's not a belief that is necessary to allow someone to live in this world. It doesn't provide someone with an ideology, values, or anything else to give their lives meaning. Atheism is simply a belief that there isn't a God because there is no evidence that supports such a belief. What values they have may be similar to those of religious people but it's not derived with the belief that those values are dictated by a God. They can argue these values exist for various other reasons and that religion is simply a mystical spin on these values.

Many scientists believe that there is most likely to be intelligent life in other worlds. Also that there may be other parallel universes, wormholes, etc.
The logic of an atheist is that there is no such life, no parallel worlds, and so on. Since there is no evidence to support this.

Great post.
I'd like to continuate your line of tinking and add another factors that also help us to understand why some are more emotional:
1-Hormones.
Hormones such as Estrogen( the hormone responsible for the typical irritating female behaviour).
Higly estrogened males(also known as soyboys) tend to be endomorph like alpines, baltids and borrebies. That explains why alpinization can also be translated as "addictional annoyingnes";
Im endomorph myself and i guess that explains why i was banned from here for so many times, lol;
2-Bad education and little dicipline when kid;
3-Repression.
In our modern society, specially in the West( but also in areas influentiated by it in the thirld world) masculinity is so repressed that is considerated as a crime.
Inclusive, to end it honouring the topic of the thread,
The instinctual-repressive tool most used is, yeah, it, religion!
