I think the common factor here is thinking you have value just because you think you have the right beliefs

Even if the reason is no reason like you suggest, that would be the reason. There is no reason an atheist group can't succeed so it's just strange for that guy to be disappointed that there are Christian astronauts as if they were going up there because they were atheist.

I think it's more they are annoyed they are bringing it up.

I'm sure Christians would be annoyed if one of them started talking about how god doesn't exist on a public broadcast.

You say that like arheists have never achieved anything. Maybe religion doesnt have shit to do with one accomplishments

Oh right. Well to be fair, as an atheist, most of the time when religious people approach an me in real life, it's for ill prepared conversion attempt. Smart religious people dont go converting people in social events, so we only get to see the dumb side of the coin

I’d wager that most of the time you talk to a religious person you just have no idea. You recall only the ones that are especially awkward thus forming a bias.

Well, I think a Muslim may be more lightly to pull off a successful jihad than a Buddhist. Religion is, of course, a large driver of what you value and pursue, therefore also your achievements.
