I have made commitment that every time I read a bigoted post I will write something about atheism.

When looking at religious identity predicting volunteerism, atheists out-volunteered many of the religious groups. In other words, if you compared the average atheist and the average Catholic on volunteerism, the godless were more likely to be philanthropic. This set of findings was perplexing, which is academic parlance for “WTF?”

Atheists and the common good

When our study began, we expected to find that the religious are more likely to volunteer than the nonreligious. We were in for a surprise.

This doesn't surprise me at all. Religious people aren't better people.

I consider myself a Christian. But being a Christian is not about being a good person. The gospel isn't about morals and rules. It is about God's love and our redemption.
