Quote:"Non-believers" do, of course, have many beliefs, though not religious ones. For example, they typically hold that moral feelings are social in origin, based on treating others as they would wish to be treated (the 'golden rule' which antedates all the major world religions).

As an atheist, do you agree with this quote? Do you strive to follow the golden rule?

Yes I agree. You get what you deserve. And if you are putting on airs you don't deserve that respect.

If you treat others with respect it makes life worth living for. Smile

And I am good because I want to be, not because of some imaginary sky daddy will send me to hell. Devil
