Willie,

Again you have written without thinking.

That was not the question or the implication at all.
Below is an answer to that same criticism just a few posts down from this one.

You are presenting yourself as and educated and informed man, but if you are simply reading the first post and making accusations based on that, you don't bring anything of value to the discussion.

>>>>>
>>>Perhaps we should turn the question around: Many Christians (including, apparently, Jack the Sailor) seem to believe that atheists, because they don't take the Christian mythology to heart, can't have any moral rudder.<<<

Perhaps you should make a slight effort to understand the question before turning it?

To phrase it in the terms you used my question was "What rudder do atheists use?" I never said or even implied that they don't have a rudder.

It was a simple clear question, repeated at least twice, which has been answered several times on this thread.

The ill will and disrespect for Atheists you describe is purely a product of you imagination. <<<<
