What
atheists refuse to believe in is making themselves, or attempting to make themselves, better than they were created. I think this is the ultimate point of religion.
Love not hate, opposing our nature. Give not take, opposing our nature. Restrain our urges, opposing our nature. Don't fear death, opposing our nature. They simply can't handle the thought of attempting or succeeding at those.
They tend to believe in redistributing wealth and making a utopian, socialist society, ultimately because they want others to share in their misery.
