It is interesting that when good people do things bad because of and in the name of their organised religion - that the organised religion will be excused, defended and distanced from it and the individual will often be solidly blamed.

When people do good things because of and in the name of their organised religion - the organised religion gets or at least shares in the credit. Even though they are supposed to be doing good things?

Religious people can act well or badly. Atheists can act well or badly. Badness is simply not dependent on, nor is it tied to one's religion or one's lack of religion.

When atheists do bad things - no one tends to make any excuses.
