Just curious about this. I have had multiple arguments where I use this, although it is argued back that;
"Although not in the name of atheism, secular people can do wrong acts too" and "Good people do evil acts as well, so what's your point?"
What do people think about these counter arguments?
He's mostly right. For good people to do evil things, that takes religion, ideology, a mob, or an evil authority figure.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
