[PaulKersey]

I>'ve met plenty of people - Scandinavians, Europeans, Americans, Africans, etc - that just had to share their religion with others. Perhaps for the same reason others share their atheism?

That's true. But the others do have something to offer besides nothing.

But the others do have something to offer besides nothing

First of all I didn't mean to offer you anything (not even "nothing") with my brief description of myself besides an idea of who I am. Second, I think you've got the wrong idea about atheism. It's not "nothing" as the big questions otherwise answered by God, Allah or whatever diety you worship are given other answers.
