Organised religion is responsible for a lot of the bad things that have happened in the world, and it's also responsible for a lot of the good things. Likewise, there have been great and terrible atheists throughout history.
Also, I have many religious friends who are better people because of their religions, and aren't any more self-important about them than I am about my beliefs.
No, it's not organised religion that makes me an atheist. I don't think the ways people have interpreted the bible change its truth (or lack thereof); I think it's possible to believe in God in the absence of the Church. I'm an atheist because I don't believe in God.
