God Prefers Atheists

I read something that struck me on LOL God today and the comic that is posted there makes a very good point. I am sure, I mean absolutely positive that God (if he/she existed) would be happier, more satisfied and even proud if the people he allegedly created chose not to steal simply because it is a "dickish thing to do" rather than simply because God says stealing is wrong. I mean just because I am an atheist does not make me a sex-starved mother-hating wife-stealing self-involved lazy criminal with no morals. I have morals. I am proud of who I am and how I treat people. I love people. Isn't that all that matters?

While I totally agree with you, I suppose those of (greater) faith would contend that your moral outlook is the result of "God presence in you" . . . you just don't realize it.

Heh - exactly my point. If God blesses me with his presence regardless of my belief in him, then all those jerks who hate me because I am atheist are just simply wrong. The short story is, its up to God to judge me.
