::::Ed, I have to take offense with the characterization of Atheists as being evil. They believe something different, and in your view I'm sure they are going to Hell for it, but that doesn't make them evil. My view of "evil" is that it's an extreme judgment, and can only be applied to someone based on his or her deeds, not beliefs. Are you saying that if you accidentally found out that a student or co-worker of yours was an atheist (because they made no mention of it themselves), you'd continue to treat them the same despite viewing atheism as evil? --[[User:DinsdaleP|DinsdaleP]] 11:42, 21 August 2008 (EDT) | ::::Ed, I have to take offense with the characterization of Atheists as being evil.
