Why does it matter so much to atheists that God doesn't exist?

I am speaking to the US Bible thumpers here, of course ~ many of whom are flat-earthers who deny evolution and see scientists as evil people who are constantly trying, and succeeding, in disproving their beliefs one by one.

Notice that I said their rules, not any gods rules.

My problem is that people who try to shove their rules down everyone's throats - including by physical force - DO EXIST .

Why doesn't speeding significantly decrease one’s commute time? I've done a lot of road trips and driving and have experimented by increasing speed by 10–20%, but somehow this never equates to arriving 20% sooner, even on clear roads.

IT does not matter, mainly because it does not exist.

And then use and ENJOY these fantastic scientific advancements every single day of your life?

A belief in a god is not the problem.

What are examples of real life forced feminization?

Because these are not any gods rules we are talking about.

The people of the modern world have evolved past all of that nonsense.

Those rules that you are trying to reinstate are rules made by men who didn't know anything about the earth, nor anything about all of the other inhabitants of it. How can you not see that?

Isn't it ironic people always talk about how much women hate Donald Trump, when almost any of them would marry him if they could? What he said in the 2005 Billy Bush video, almost every woman would share the sentiment if it got them his lifestyle.

THE BIBLE IS THE PROBLEM!

These are man made rules - made thousands of years ago for the use of the humans who lived thousands of years ago.

I do not personally care if you believe in a god or not.

From an axiology/value theory point of view, how can one say that a diverse society is better than a uniform one, especially given the negative effects of diversity (racism, sectarian conflict, problems arising from extreme cultural relativism)?

And how do you deny hundreds of years of advancement in all fields of science?
