Atheists live for happiness, love, and fulfillment we just don't use religion as a crutch, cowardice or a reason. We are human beings just like you who have morals, dreams, and an appreciation for life that come from ourselves and the people around us rather than religion. I am sorry you are so misinformed.
I’m sorry that you don’t seem to understand that a higher power is important to have in your life to live for, respect, and realize what true acceptance is through.
