UK says atheists more moral than theists

RE: UK says atheists more moral than theists
This doesn't surprise me all that much. I'm amazed at how Christian America is, the UK is totally different. The Bible Belt in America strikes me as something out of a horror film, rather than something that could exist in a first world country. Although we have a cultural Christian background, for most people this just involves weddings and funerals in a Church. I'd be quite happy to tell anyone I was an Atheist, be it at work or in social situations and no one would bat an eyelid. It's not considered polite to mock religion in front of believers, but that's about it.

Christians here tend not to tell people as they are a bit embarrassed about their beliefs. Crucially they also don't tend to think of non Christians as any less moral.

If you talk about religion critically here, people would probably assume you were talking about Islam.

If you don't indocrinate people they don't become Christians. If you don't tell them that non Christians are evil, then everyone gets along ( and over time Christian numbers will fall).
