One question I have always wanted to ask a real atheist is: What keeps you in line? Most crimes go unsolved. What keeps you from murdering someone who aggravates you?


Atheists do not need Christianity to know that things like murder and rape are bad. I want to live in a peaceful society and be safe from harm because I am a rational human being with a conscience.

Humans aren’t rational.

We’re emotional.

You can tell this yourself all you want but it's not true as that's not how we are designed.

As human beings, we are by nature emotional as hell and act on those emotions daily.

Lulz

That's just not the way this works. You can have your nice little feelings all you want, only because you live in a society surrounded by Christians

Ask good husbands, fathers, citizens in China, Russia, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Syria, etc if good thoughts alone keep them safe? Hint: It Doesn't

The only place on Earth where atheists don't live in fear are in the nation states that were founded on Christian beliefs, and that also allowed them to thrive without fear of repercussions

Yet few of them will admit to their naivete on this matter

You don’t really know anything. Your morality is a vestigial tail of Judeo-Christian values.
