    It's hard to imagine what you are asking, given the garbled nature of your question.

    Rulers, tape measures, meter sticks and yard sticks are all different types of measuring devices. A meter stick or yardstick is for measuring relatively short distances (1 meter or 1 yard or less), while tape measures come in lengths up to hundreds of feet.

    Most tape measures are in the range 25 to 50 feet, but they come in shorter and longer lengths, as well as in metric measures.

    A meter stick is always marked in metric units. Most yard sticks and rulers are marked in both imperial and metric units. Rulers come in various lengths from 4 inches or so up, and segmented rulers may be 8 to 12 feet long.

    Well, your first problem is that you think there is a correlation between atheism and science which there is not (implied by your "yard stick" comment as if atheists are the only ones taking "measurements"). Secondly, if you had been referring to those that believe in science rather than a literal bible or some other abstract concept, that could apply to both theists and atheists ... science is not exclusive to one of them. Lastly, those "limited minds" you refer to have given you EVERYTHING you see around you. From the computer you typed this on, to the vaccines that kept you alive past the infant stage, our "limited minds" have literally given you your life and everything you do in it. Until you give up all modern luxuries and go back to living off the land and refusing medical advances ... you are benefiting from the "limited minds" you ridicule.
