"When people stop believing in God, they don't believe in nothing - they believe in anything."
It’s ironic, but every Atheist I know believes in Ghosts, UFO’s, Karma, etc...despite zero evidence of any of the above existing.

‘We are ruled secretly by alien overlords. No government serves but by the will of God. Therefore it is God's will that we be secretly ruled by aliens.’ WTH?
That being said, Bush, the Pope, and many more agree. The Bible is 100% spiritually true, but it is not literal.
Ghosts? No.
UFO's piloted by extraterrestrials? No, but I'm almost sure there is intelligent life somewhere else in the universe.
Karma? The spiritual belief relating to reincarnation? No. The Western, non-spiritual belief that you get what you put out? More or less. (That is: if you're a jerk, don't expect people to be nice to you. Etc.)
I’ll try to find a link for you...there’s study data showing that a person’s likelihood to believe in pseudoscientific crap is in reverse proportion to their church attendance. But it gets even better: Among those who don’t attend or seldom attend church, the acceptance of pseudoscience rises with education level. Among frequent churchgoers, the reverse is true: The more schooling, the more one rejects such crap.
BTW...Bill Maher says modern medicine is a scam, and he even rejects germ theory. But we’re the ones who are idiots because we believe in a creator. Yeah...riiiiiiiiggght!
