So religious people are better because they would only kill the non-religious while an atheist would kill everyone? I thought your pathetic ancient book said that killing was wrong regardless of relgious beliefs. Also, your scenario of hell keeping people in check has a loophole. The theist can kill all the people he wants and then just tell God he's sorry and off to the pearly gates he goes.
Sometimes I wonder if the religious could get any more out of touch with reality, and then people like you come along.

Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
