*As for the issue of atheism and mass murder, I have another rebuttal :). Throughout history, people of all religions have gone on to become mass murderers, whether it be Hitler or the leaders of the Spanish Inquisition. For the sake of argument, we can say that Hitler and Stalin were both atheists. There is no evidence that the atheism of these two (rather than inherent mental illness and overall insanity) caused their mass murder. I'm sorry, but to say that atheism is the cause of mass murder is ridiculous. Millions of people have been and continue to be killed in the name of God, whether it be the Christian God of the Crusaders or the Muslim God of the Terrorists--or the manufactured Gods of the communist party, for that matter. Don't be swayed by shallow arguements. [[User:Moderate|Moderate]] 01:20, 18 November 2010 (PST) | *As for the issue of atheism and mass murder, I have another rebuttal :).
