I don't hate any aspect of being Scottish. Although I have grave reservations regarding the insignificant part calling itself Akenaton.

Same as the twaddle above saying that atheism is the same as theism or that atheism is a value stance.   No. I don't believe in anything other than what I observe or what is either explained or shown why it can't be explained yet. If that gives me a label of atheist then it is a label of scorn put about by the more superstitious in society. A non stamp collector doesn't hold a view on stamp collecting. If stamp collectors managed to convince government that gay people don't have rights and it says so in their constitution I would then have a legitimate view to put forward about them and their effect on freedoms of others. Same with religion. Fuck all to do with me. Enjoy your activities but don't be surprised by the reaction when you try to influence people with more intelligence and less superstition.

Compassion and moral compasses are survival traits of altruism as exhibited by creatures who haven't heard of God and would be annoyed to hear that we reckon he is in our image.

Religion is useful though. Perhaps that alone is why it is scrutinised by rational people. If that is victimising, then get your house in order and society will have less to be concerned over.
