I thought of another case I could close, the morality one. Check this out, it came to me this morning.
Religious types tend to go on about a single, moral standard being the best, right? So how about this. I would wager that if you did a survery of atheists, and got their opinions of the various moralities of actions on a sliding scale, there wouldn't be that much variance. However, if you did the same thing with religious types, even ones all from the same religion, you'd find a vastly bigger spread. So in fact, the "atheist morals" are (if I'm correct) more consistent and represent a single set of rules better, although not exactly, than the religious ones.
Do you think my prediction would be correct?
