So what?

Atheism is about lack of belief,nothing more, it is NOT a religion,world view, political ideology ,philosophy or club.

Stalin and the rest you mentioned were psychotic monsters who were also atheists. They were NOT monsters BECAUSE they were atheists.Nor does atheism imply or infer a lack of morality. The implication of your statement is a facile and insulting ad hominem.Angry

I agree and offered those as an examples to counter the claim that theistic thinking inclines believers toward totalitarian thinking.
