Maybe the best thing they can look forward to is dying and leaving their miserable existence.
What makes you stupidly think because we don't believe that means we automatically lack value for the rights of others? I just spent yesterday almost an hour tweeting everywhere I could on the net a story of a BELIEVER in Pakistan under threat of a death sentence for blasphemy. I don't care that she has a belief, we are human beings first.
There is a huge difference between rights and claims, rights are a given, but whatever comes out of your mouth on ANY ISSUE is open to scrutiny as it should be.
