There is fascination on both sides of the fence, I assure you.

I think both sides are closed minded.
Atheists like to fancy themselves as intellectuals and the drug is addictive. The more they convince themselves of this the less fear they allow into their minds.
Thumpers tend to convince themselves as there is no alternative. The state of "mental ease" afforded by faith vanishes if they open the window of doubt.
Admitting you don't know and don't have faith either way is a scary place to live.....so few reside here
