Doesn't matter much to the thread, there's no shortage of people to further the notion that atheists have an immorality advantage.
Wish we did, lol. If half the shit nutters believed about atheists were true we'd have long since conquered the earth. Unfortunately, when it comes right down to it, beliefs in god and about god have no effect on the presence of moral intuitions. An atheist and a theist from the same culture are very likely to share moral intuition, and even the specific contents of their moral intuitions. Nutters mistakenly believe this has something to do with a god, and so they mistakenly presume that atheists have a god line in their moral considerations.
