<<So says you, but t hat is not what I am saying. I'm just saying they see the glass as half full despite having no philosophical basis for doing so.>> What are you taking about? A philosophical base for our actions is all we atheists have. And the reason atheists know more about religion than religious folks, and are kinder and are more educated, is actually quite clear, but seldom mentioned i.e. it is because they have the ability to figure out myth; as opposed to those who cannot. One would not expect folks who cannot figure out myth to behave better than those who can, as it is more primitive behavior, and history has clearly shown how primitive folks behave. Usually not as well as more enlightened folks.
