Atheists Lack Compassion?

Discussing how Christians often develops a "why do you care" attitude towards atheists. Also discussing that simply because I lack a belief in a god, doesn't mean I can't be compassionate.

@wavymavy i agree. a theist doesn't steal because they're afraid of judgement. an atheist doesn't steal because they know it's jacked up to do.

wow, the first 15 seconds reminded me how scary some churches are. how can the mental institute diagnose some people with mental disorders yet over look a majority of these religious nut jobs? don't get me wrong, some are down to earth and are great people, but the way this woman was talking, she sounded more akin to a crazy occult leader; which i guess its essentially is.

The one thing I don't get is how anyone with a melon count in their skin could be Mormon, the whole structure of their faith is racist WTF? That'd be like me joining an I hate women group, makes no sense, then when you try to bring it up they rationalize it. To me it just seems crazy.

Glad to see you posting another video! Actually, when an atheist acts out of compassion he is being more moral than a theist. An atheist does good for its own sake, and not for some imagined reward or imagined fear of punishment in the afterlife. Our reasons for doing the right thing are more pure and genuine.

Good to see you back!

I agree, I'm sick to death of people with the "why do you care?" attitude, as if I needed there to be an eternal bliss after death to get something of the life.
