I find this odd because its not a point of debate. It's relation of personal opinion as if its a given fact that everyone should understand and those who don't agree with it clearly haven't developed to the proper point.

I daresay most of what's debated here is a matter of personal opinion. My opinions are as subject to challenge and debate as anyone's. And what will it be challenged and debated with? Other people's opinions.

Do atheist feel thats its no longer needed to debate religion, and the major focus is just getting people to "wake" up to your reality?

Debate is just one way to make people think about what they believe. It's a way to get believers to question their beliefs, a way to reveal alternative explanations for things they've been told only have one explanation, god. Debate should make people think. If a theist's faith can't withstand skepticism and questioning, the believer owes it to themselves to ask why.

As to the topic title; no, I don't consider myself a better person than everyone else. I'm far less noble, less charitable, less intellectual than many others. I'm no less human than anyone else, but I have my faults. Considering religion, I think the conclusions I've reached are logical and consistent with what evidence there is that might support religious belief. Of course I hope others will come to the same conclusions. However, in my world there's no punishment, temporal or eternal, for those who do not do so. So while I feel that I've come to a sensible conclusion regarding religions, I don't think that makes me a "better" person, more evolved than the religious, or any of the other accusations made against atheists. I simply think I see both sides of this issue and have come to a defensible conclusion.
