    what bad religion did to the society? if you say because of wars, its not... war is not solely about religion FYI. religion is only used as cover or front for their real agenda which is to conquer territory.

    To site one case religious institutions in the Philippines are actively blocking the passing of the RH Bill. Which in my opinion if passed would greatly benefit the Filipino community.

    Everyone is entitled to know. Please read up if the doctrine of Atheism is for you. ITS NEVER FOR ME.
    The article doesn't say anything dangerous about atheism it in fact criticizes theists for taking atheism wrongly. Anyways, talk about dangers...history teaches us that there were more "theist-related" killings than atheist-related killings. Also, looking at criminal stats, you will be surprised that god-believing people kill more people than those who do not believe in God at all.

    By the way, mosquitoes have killed more people than atheists. Think about it.

    Religion is not safe either.

Cos theists would think that life on earth is just temporary, important for them is the afterlife. So, theists would do anything just to attain this afterlife bliss. And in order to attain this they follow their religion blindly.
    Wrong comparison.

    An atheist, with his belief that there is no God, no life after death, no welfare of his soul to think about, is a lot more dangerous than a theist who kills in God's name.

    We have laws against crime in our country. But consider a worst case scenario of need and necessity... An opportunity comes to an atheist where he can attain wealth or whatever that can benefit him and answer to his needs, but the act of obtaining that benefit is a crime. You would say of course I won't because I can go to prison. But what if no one's looking? What if an atheist knows that no one will ever ever ever know about it? What if the opportunity presents 100% surety that he can get away with it?

    What will hold him back to commit that crime?

    The point that an atheist is not concerned of the welfare of his soul because he believes there is none, is more potent and dangerous than theists who kill for religion. Because ultimately it all boils down to WHY you would do something. What is the root cause of your principle. What is the reason behind your choices.

    For theists, if ever government laws will be abolished, they will still have laws that govern them. For atheists what laws will govern you? Laws that are subject to personal preferences?

    Why?
    Well we need each other to survive. If a person died or become disabled because of your decision. How will you be able to finish the house in time for winter? How will you be able to pro-create. The bottom line here is that we need each other to continue our race our species our civilization.

    Exactly you said it right. but the question is, is it really because of religion that they are killing of? is your criminal stats really tells that those god believing people commits murder because of religion? or religion related case?

    What kind of crime would that be? Surely if it's a crime people would get hurt, personal belongings would get lost. People would ask questions and eventually the culprit would be figured out sooner or later.

    "Do not do unto others what others don't want to do unto you" more or less is the basic principle that atheists follow.
