I don't think it's always a mistake to trust an emotional response though.
I realise atheism is belief there is no god and I would assume anything spiritual or maybe supernatural..? when I read posts on this I get the feeling each belief system is trying to persuade the other. but it seems to me atheism has this big hole in it that dosn't provide any framework for people to resolve the emotional aspect of life. making it not very attractive to those with a particularly strong emotional reactions. addressing one's grief, rage, wonderment "for yourself" isn't really a concept that will bring people together.
