Give me the reality where they are all doing evil and will receive justice for their actions whether other people know about these actions or not.Wow, you really are an apologetic disgusting asshole, aren'tcha?
No need for name calling sir.

No pretending required, Joseph Stalin is receiving justice as we speak for murdering 50 million of his fellow countryman. If God didn’t exist then he got off Scot free and died one of the most powerful men in the World. I take comfort in knowing justice was served.

No, I don’t “dig”, that doesn’t make a wink of sense.

Just remember that every time you hear something like "from an atheistic perspective you cannot even defend the claim that these child molesters did anything morally wrong" what they're really saying is "if it wasn't for my belief that god was watching over my shoulder, I would be out molesting children right now."
You’re usually a bit more eloquent than this FNM. No, it God didn’t exist neither of us would be here right now.

Maybe I shouldn't criticize your gods mistakes and cock-ups so much - at least that gives it the opportunity to get something right by accident - since it's clearly incapable of getting anything right on purpose.
No, God’s upholding grace prevents all of us from being as evil as we could be, we do not deserve any credit for not committing such evil acts. How are you defining “right” here?

There’s no need to get frustrated, if you believe my statement is wrong then just prove it. Provide a logically sound syllogism that proves child molestation would be wrong independent of time and place in a Universe devoid of God’s existence. If it’s sound I’ll admit I was wrong.
