You do realize that there wed atheist in the ancient times as well right?
Just because you have no choice that to receive an education in a religious school that doesn't automatically makes you a supporter of religion.
I don't want to sound rude or offend you since you sound like a nice person but I gotta ask:
Separating the good values from religion to make them more noticeable?WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK THAT WE ATHEISTS HAVE BEEN DOING ALL THIS TIME!! HAVEN'T YOU'VE BEEN WATCHING?
1. I'm a Gentleman, not a Lady.
2. Yes there were a few atheists in ancient times, but that is besides the point.
3. Atheists are disorganized, there is no institution to promote the observance of these virtues aside from individual interest. Religion however does have the ability to speak to a large crowd of people and to motivate them to do stuff. Often many claim an authority that they do not have and use their influence for their own benefit instead of the benefit of the people.
Were we atheists to have a 'school' for the the observance and practice of these virtues imagine just what good we could do.
One thing I've noticed is that there is a lot of negativity of religion on this forum, I've seen many list all of the bad things that I know religion has. I have not seen, however, people listing some of the good things religion has.
