Actually, I think you'll find most atheist do believe in morals. They just don't believe in objective morality is all.

There is no proof of God. Wishful thinking, yes. Proof, no.

I'm talking objective morality in the Biblical sense. I think that pseudo "objective" morality about certain acts or core moral rules evolved over time and are encoded into our DNA. Add in a mixture of basic human empathy and compassion, emotional investment, social and cultural values, a sense of fairness, and of course enlightened self-interest. These explicit moral values exist because they are advantageous to the survival of the species.

I wouldn't generalize about that statement on objective morality. I am an atheist, and I also believe in objective morality in the sense that I don't think unprovoked, meditated murder is ok.

So many people misinterpret the bible... It makes me ashamed that they call themselves "Christians"

During the Anita Bryant fiasco of the late 70s, somebody once suggested that she read the ENTIRE Bible, not just the dirty parts.
