  I wonder at what point atheists became the big monsters. I'm assuming
it was somewhere around when communists stopped being so scary.

  By the strict definition of atheism, buddhists are atheists. That's
because they don't believe in any gods (in the theistic sense). AFAIK
in buddhism the question of where the universe and life came from is
irrelevant, and one shouldn't bother oneself with such inconsequential
questions.
