>>Neither beleivers nor atheists have any rational reason to believe in deity.<<

I am sorry, but we do not have consensus on this point. I believe the benefit I derive from believing to be a very rational reason for belief.

>>But the atheists make more sense,<<
No consensus here either I can point to an Atheist or two on this thread who hasn't made much sense at all.

>>even if only to those who don't rely on faith to reach conclusions. <<

That's a bit circular isn't it? You are just saying that the people start with the same assumptions are likely to reach the same conclusions.
