I'm an atheist, and I'm ok with religion. I see religion as a philosophy that teaches about fellowship in others. I do hope there is an afterlife, I just don't believe there is one. I have been a Catholic for 40+ years, I just had a change of heart. If you hate me because of this, you haven't really know me. As for atheist that put religion down, I don't speak for them. I would never ridicule someone's beliefs. FSM, I know is a mockery of religion. I see it as being funny, not making fun of one's religion. Take it as it is. Sorry Raydog for replying on your comment, just happens that you said what I would say.
