    Comforting people with your voice is a form of magic and atheists don’t believe in magic, so they haven’t developed any incantations.

      We need to think of some then!

      How about:

      “On average, the chances of you dying in the next week are only .1%, so buck up!”

      Nah, comforting people is a form of social interaction. We are social animals and that helps us to survive bad situations. No magic in that.
