Ohhhhhh Waldorf. Now whose the idiot? Not only did you just make up the reasoning behind Stalin's moral fiber or lack thereof, you wrongly assume mine. Where in the definition of atheism does it say 'no morality'? It doesn't. Your creed does not own morality and I made a case that being of such a creed makes you less moral than me. To which you had no rebuttal.
Human rights have been and always will be, default. With or without afterlife repurcussions, they're there. Problem is in your world you can violate them then go confess to your god and feel absolved without actually having to pay for your actions in any real way, or when violated you just hug yourself and pretend the violaters are gonna pay. Childish poppycock.

If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!
Dead wrong. The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.
I say again: No exceptions. Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it. As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.
Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.
