Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.

Even when they appear to do good, it is never by their design - since they reject the existence of objective goodness, and therefore can neither understand nor do it.
And yet here I am just as moral as the next guy. Why is that? My dad is an atheist, he's never done wrong, he even gave blood. Obviously someone has got it wrong. We are not evil, or wicked, and you have no right to go around accusing people of being evil for simply lacking certain beliefs. Shame on you. Would you like it if I accused you of molesting children? For simply believing in something I don't?
Out of the two of us, only you are guilty of accusing people of being evil and wicked. I've accused no one of anything. So who do you think is in the wrong here?
We all are inclined to think the best of ourselves. That doesn't mean that one's self-image is accurate. The fact remains that one cannot actually do good if one does not believe in objective goodness. At best you'd be doing just what pleases you - which is not the same as what is objectively good.

I thought you'd agree with my implied assertion that there is NOTHING outside of the NATURAL Universe. Do you just have a need to disagree with me regardless? Hahahahahhhaha!

You're prejudging. You don't know me. So ok, I can play that game. For now on, I'm just going to assume that your both a rapist and a child molester. So...why do you rape women?
Fact is mate, I get my morality from myself. "Treat others as you would like to be treated, and "live and let live". Basic ideals that are moralistic in every way. I don't need religion to be moral, because morality does not come from religion.
So are we going to continue assuming the other is evil or grow up?

You arrogant prejudiced arsewipe.
After all the evil acts that have been committed over the centuries in the name of a fucked up imaginary skybully and you have the audacity to come here and claim atheists are evil.
Suck a turd out of a dead dogs arsehole pal.

And so A-theism still exists and always has done...whether YOU understand it or not.
You are very one sided in your outlook. Just learn that you had a penis??

Since the blind can still detect light via scientific means your anology sucks arse.

If they can detect light, they can't be blind, can they? Sheeeesh!
I'm talking about the really blind. Not the merely partially blind. You fellows really hate clarity, do you not? You need the swamp of confusion to swim in like fish need water to swim in.

Zaki does not understand Russell's Paradox, so he says it must be god.
