This is the main problem of atheists: They try to hide behind a hollow shield of "science" despite their view is only powered by feelings and beliefs. No different at all than the extremists of the other side.
Why? Because scientific stuff needs to be found in observable evidences, and then tested under measurable conditions. It should not be needed to say the concept of God becomes very problematic in a setting like this.
Basing stuff in "negative evidences" as per, "There is no evidence God exists, therefore he doesn't exist" or the opposite "There is no evidence God doesn't exist, therefore he exists" does not lead to conclusive results because it's 50/50 weight against each other (or more like 0/0 in this case).
The theory of the origin of the universe most Atheists adhere to is too identical to that of the genesis, replacing all the epic adjectives by tech adjectives and replacing "God" with "Nothingness" in every paragraph.
Therefore this silly debate only becomes "I wanna! I wanna!".
I would say religious/deity stuff is better studied from a philosophical perspective. Science is not the apt tool to measure anything like this, because it is not possible for it to yield results in any direction.
This is not even taking into account most people could not properly describe what a God encompasses (this can vary a lot).
Also, not exactly that highly religious myself. Far from atheist though. I also think humanity (for the most part) is better off under religious presence, than in absence of it. Mainly because the moral enforcement.

I imagine this like the death of Rorschach at the end of Watchmen: too hardcore, no compromises, "outta my way, people need to know." But none of us can handle the truth so the poor favela mutt-dog had to be put to sleep to save our ears from constant barking.
The truth is of course something totally different, but it doesn't matter. Truth never matters. Reality lives and dies. Legends live forever.

Of course men fought. If not men, then who? Women have no fight in them. God can be easily inserted into womans brain:

^if that was a dude Rhett was squeezing, he would have had to make a war out of it, beat him real bad before he had accepted a new god. But since Scarrlett is a chick a little squeezing was enough.

It's worthy to be noted that religions were the source of certain wars, senseless conflict and scientific decay(dark ages comes to mind)

The human need a belief to exist in this world, and the Atheist also believes too, that no God exists.

It wouldn't be impossible if you have an argument based on evidence that there is a God. It seems silly to say someone is a 'fundamentalist' if there is no argument to counter their atheism. If someone doesn't believe in space aliens visiting Earth, then are they closed minded in their belief? Or is that they haven't been presented with any solid evidence? Why mock someone who worships Odin and not someone who worships Yahweh?
