often, they exibit the same "blind faith" in their history and leaders as the religious do

The thing about atheism is, there is no "history", and there are no "leaders" who are sacred or whatnot. There is no piece of history that is so crucial to atheism that without it, the system collapses. (Unlike Christianity - Jesus, or Islam - Mohammed, etc.)

Atheism is the default position we all start with - it is only after others teach us about gods that we believe in them.

If you are referring to your threads about Fomenko, the people disagreeing with you there are doing so out of the lack of factual verification for Fomenko's theories, not because you are attacking secular history.
