The reason why is that you can't simply tell a religious person they are "mistaken." The existence of God, the afterlife, etc. is unfalsifiable, so you never will be able to prove a religious person wrong. That's what makes religious beliefs special compared to political beliefs for example. Even if you don't believe the same things as another person you should have a basic level of respect for their religious beliefs. If you are an atheist you should try to be the opposite of the example r/atheism sets.

Simply feeling like something is true doesn't make it scientific. That's what you aren't understanding.

Science doesn't care about one's faith that the moon is made of cheese, the earth being flat or faith that God exists.

You are more than welcome to have faith in those things, however no, it's not scientific.

You seem to be seeking a safe space where one must acknowledge the shape of a square as a circle or it's "an attack." You are more than welcome to have faith that the shape of a square is a triangle, however pointing out a triangle has 3 sides, not 4 isn't "attacking you" just because you don't want to hear that.
