The point isn't the degree of diversity, which is low. The point is the high degree of agreement among atheists. It suggests that they're getting their moral judgments in part from shared outside sources, just as OP accuses theists of doing. They just go to different sources.
Um wrong.
I do not have the same thing in common with an atheist who would claim abortion is immoral. I do not have the same thing in common with an atheist who things "sell more and do nothing" on issues of firearms. I do not have the same thing in common with claiming Ayn Rand's "fuck you I got mine" is moral. WE DO NOT agree on those things 100%.
But just like a Liberal Christian would agree with conservative Christian, they'd all claim our species morality can be explained by the bible.
The Ayn Rand atheist, the firearm atheist, and the anti abortion atheists, whom I DON'T AGREE WITH on those issues, would agree regardless of our opposing positions that our morality is in us, not old books of mythology.
Atheists certainly have different morals, the only thing we'd agree with is that those morals are not being handed to us from above.
Pointing to our diversity only proves we are diverse, it does not prove your position.
"You do it too, so therefor I am correct by default" is not an argument.
Still not up to the conservative atheist, or liberal atheist to do your homework for you.
"You do it too, so Allah is the one correct God"
"You do it too, so Buddha is the only path to wisdom"
"You do it too, so the Hindu God Bhrama is the one true God"
"You do it too, so Yahweh is the one true God".
Yes, atheists are diverse, so? Still has nothing to do with your ,lack of evidence. Yes, we have different morals so?
