Atheism: Decide morals that benefit the collective and the individual are worthwhile through logic and evidence
Theism: Stone women to death for not being virgins to please an angry, petty god, even at the expense of logic and evidence
Is this what theists find so appealing?
Your reserch on thiests is lacking a little there. Check Wiki.
Originally posted by sonshipI just hate threads like the other made by fetchmyjunk. All crap and no substance. As is human nature, theists won't realize this until it's their side being attacked with terrible logic.

Why start off with Theism having women being stoned to death?
I'd say you start off showing one side good the other bad, was this an attempt to be fair?

Originally posted by vivifyFor the most part, neither atheists nor theists "decide" what their moral structures will be. They are born into pre-existing moral structures that they are acculturated into. And the way they each go about modifying those moral structures has almost nothing to do with logic or evidence, even though they like to pretend otherwise.
