Atheists creep me out because the motivations of their beliefs are usually, if not actually then apparently, random.

The motives for humans' beliefs are certainly not random, but typically emotion, and emotions are rooted in past experiences and innate drives. Theists and nontheists are typically motivated by the same human emotions that aver them to uncertainty. But, theists find it possible to believe things that nontheists cannot.

You missed the point and your behavior on this thread started so badly that I have no interest in your responses.
