problem with "believers"
too many of them are "unbelievers in believers' outer appearance".
and they act worse than many unbelievers, that is true.
whitened sepulchers, looking good on the outside, but inside . . .
i don't want somebody approaching me who exudes "purity", because those are the ones who are like serpents.

Kooka - I cannot say quite the same thing as you say here:
"If you were to ask me to show examples of good, moral people I would point to many atheists I know, and very few believers." but can say that if you were to ask me for examples of good, moral people that my non-believing friends would at the very least be on par with any group of believers.
On the subject of the posting: I've always found it rather insulting to have to prove to others that I do not embody the negative assumptions that their religions teach them. When some knucklehead tells me that I must worship some invisible sky daddy to be a good person and then takes it a step further to suggest that I am deficient of character for not sharing their wishful delusion, it is indicative of just how primitive people's thinking can be.
