Why 'should' atheists be moral?

[Indiveren]

Also why bring up the sense of duty thing in a thread talking about atheism, a sense of duty counts a lot more for theists then it does for atheists.

good work on misreading my post.

How do you mean? I ask because my atheism hardly figures into my duties.

Theists feel a sense of duty to god because they are told that they are supposed to always do what god wants. Atheists don't exactly have a god to feel a sense of duty to and anything else we can feel a sense of duty to a theist also can.
