I'm not offended in the slightest. Neither am I a monster. I'm not good because I fear hell, I'm good because I wish to live a peaceful and happy life within society. If atheists are all so self-centered, how do you explain secular charity?

You need to read more carefully what I wrote, and I have tried to respond to people here on this forum. Keep in my mind that I do think its possible to be an atheist and live an ethical life. Also note that I haven't pointed people to the "book" as often as others using wiki articles to back up there points. You know what, I like it when people try to explain their own ideas without reference to external books and so forth. You know... using logic.
