Oh? Where was this attack? In fact, where in the comic was the word "christian" even used?
I'll save you some time; it wasn't. And attacking the inefficacy of prayer, the strange moral position of asserting there wouldn't be any morals without the threat of hell, and the concept of religiously motivated wars, is not attacking the character of christians. Seems like you're projecting a bit there.
Quote: Since he's an atheist, he never steals.
Maybe, maybe not. I've never stolen anything, and I'm an atheist. The issue is that the reason an atheist might refrain from doing so doesn't include a constant threat hanging over our heads, which makes the act more moral in general.
Quote: Secondly, christians are required to make atonement to the one whom we've wronged.
But it doesn't matter if you do or don't, because the only forgiveness that matters in the end is god's, and you get that just by faith.
