Recognizing that religion had an important place in the historical development of society (culture, government, labor, ownership, law, family, etc) and that being religious has a material basis that exists outside of our own ability to choose our beliefs.

Atheism isn't a choice. Theism isn't a choice. They are just products of our material conditions.

So, I don't try to convince anyone about atheism; I'm honestly somewhat jealous that religious people can still believe in anything.
