I just asked my hubby to read some of these exchanges. He had this thought: He thinks there may be a misunderstanding. He thinks maybe you have gotten it into your head that "atheists" as individuals equates to "atheism" as an opinion. But though atheism is only a statement about one thing, and that thing isn't ethics, atheists as individuals of course have ethics, as theists as individuals do. Their ethics just aren't derived from membership in the category "atheist." Theists as individuals have ethics, too. Their ethics just aren't derived from membership in the category "theist." (That might be puzzling, but I am referring to the fact that Muslim ethics are different from Christian ethics are different from Pantheist ethics are different from Animist ethics are different from Satanist ethics, and if all you know is "theist," you don't know much aside from the fact that some of the class of theists believe that ethics comes from outside man.) I don't know if he's right, but on the chance this is a misunderstanding based on the above, I'm posting it.
