Well I agree, for to long the Religious have claimed the moral high ground and now we should as there more immoral and we are better then the religious and we don't have God.

Know more about the world than I knew yesterday and lessen the suffering of others. You'd be surprised how far that gets you' - Neil deGrasse Tyson
"Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it." - Mark Twain

But your quote is there and going to remain forever. How much you gonna pay me not to put it in a large red scrolling marquee and then promote it on Google and Yahoo and possibly a shout on Facebook?
How about I let you live??
In all seriousness It was a simple Typo give me a break. Now back to the main topic.

Atheists will always have the moral highground. We aren't condemning 99% of the population ever to exist to burn in hell for eternity.
