Default Re: Who would you expect to be more moral - an Atheist or a Theist?

[ QUOTE ]
Again, depending on what your definition of morality is, I think there's really no difference between the two groups. One's religious beliefs and morality have nothing to do with each other. There are many christians who spend thier lives trying to help others, and there are many who are completely immoral. Same with athiests.

If you read through many of the threads here there is often the supposition by the Theists that an Atheist can't be moral because he does not have an absolute reference point (god). They believe right and wrong comes from god and man can't determine that by himself. Obviously, from the poll so far many people disagree.
