9. Being an atheist doesn't mean someone is automatically using critical thinking...

in evaluating their beliefs, nor does it make a person completely rational. Someone can be an atheist by being raised that way, and never learning how to evaluate evidence or using empiricism in their lives, or they could have come about their atheism through completely irrational means.
