atheism and children

[Catholic_Lady]

Atheists are better than everyonnnnnnneee (especially Christians), yayyyyyy!!!!

Lol.

I wish it were that simple, I wish becoming an atheist would automatically make one a good person. Everyone knows that that is not the case.  What are you trying to do with your selective bold quote?

I'm merely highlighting that Christianity can be a serious obstacle for ethical behavior. Way to ignore the substance of what is said to you about your faith, as you always do because you have to. Christians are so used to claiming the moral high ground that they tend to become confused when it is pointed out to them that their religion can be a strong hindrance as well, that they are ethically compromised because of it.

I bolded them to show that it's coming across like you're saying Atheists are good and Christians are bad. I know you don't believe this, which is why I brought it to your attention that that's how it came across.

As for the second part, I'm not sure what you want me to say. Someone on the internet whom I have never met is telling me that Christianity is "an obstacle" for being moral. Ok. Obviously I severely disagree, but I don't feel I need to gain the approval for my beliefs from anyone here, so why should I say anything? If you were my brother, for example, I would certainly have plenty to say, as I wouldn't want my brother to think that way about me and the rest of our family. But a stranger online? I don't really mind.

I have noted though, that a comment like that is made (about morality), but then at the same time you don't believe morality is actually a real thing apart from just individual opinion and societal norms. So it's not making any sense. Christianity holds people back from acting morally, but yet morals are completely subjective anyway? Hm. Don't get it.
