Yeah but don't Atheists know that you can't have morality without God? It seems like Atheists just want an excuse to not have to abide by God's moral code so they can do whatever they want.
You should go read about Secular Humanism. Most people/societies are capable of creating their own moral code.
We know there are consequences for the actions we take. Our consequences are just more realistic than yours...no fire and brimstone...or streets paved in gold.
We have individual consciences...We try not to hurt people we care about. Id mention we have a legal system but I'm not really a fan of its current state.
All the denominations of Christianity can't even decide which rules are the most correct or most important so atheists aren't really that much worse off in the morals department.
How many so-called Christians do we see in the media in the middle of sex scandals and other moral predicaments? With or without a god, people will do what they feel is in their best interests.
