I don't think compassion/lack of compassion is the same axis as theist/atheist. I think you can get theists who are compassionate, and theists who aren't, and the same goes for atheists. Same with intelligent/stupid - there are theists and atheists in both camps.
I happen to be a liberal, pluralist, tolerant theist, and I have far more in common with liberal, pluralist, tolerant atheists than I do with nut-nut religious types. I think the whole dividing line of this thread is wrong.
