There's already a list of our bad points!

Free-thinking, none of this "goddunnit" mentality. Enquiring mind. Also, enough intellectual honesty to actually deal with the evidence, rather than denouncing anything that undermines our position.

That should be enough to warm things up. 😉

Why should moral facts not be "built into" a (secular) universe like any other facts, e.g. facts about what is or is not beautiful?

this depends on the question. even an Athiest knows how to accept certain parts of life their questions will have no answer to.

By posting this in a thread called 'Positive aspects of atheism' I must conclude that you think it is a good thing that you view atheists as having no accountability. What a strange man you are, or is there a slight chance you were being facetious? How very Christian of you...
