ClownHall columnist: Hey Atheists. . .Get Your Own Moral Code. |
In Doug Giles' world Christians invented morality, and everybody else
is just copying from them.
From the article:

I received a lot emails from snippy atheists after my column,
“Atheists had Better Pray to God They’re Right” ran the week of May
13, 2007. I had many God-deniers tell me, quite self-righteously I
might add, that they lived by a high moral code without the aid of any
“opiate” or “crutch” like Jesus or Moses, and they didn’t need some
archaic holy book giving them the skinny on how they should live.
Hey, arrogant atheists, here’s an aside before I take you to task any
further: that self-righteous, “I’m good enough without God” attitude
is the very sin that Christ condemned the most. But I wouldn’t worry
about that, since Jesus probably never existed anyway. And if He did,
He wasn’t “the One” He thought He was and said He was and thus, all He
said was a load of hooey. That is, according to your wizards.
Anyway, back to my point. Did I make a point yet? Please forgive me.
My coffee is wearing off. Okay, now I’m tracking. . . .
In the volley of hate email hailed down upon me, one particular
anti-God guy stated that he lived better than most Christians. He
further patted himself on the back by saying that his Christian
buddies even gave him big props for his squeaky-cleanness. Well, let
me join in your hombres’ praise by saying a big “Good for you, dude.
Here’s a brownie button.” I’ll be the first to admit that I’ll take a
civil atheist over an irrational and violent al Qaeda op any old day.
The problem I have, however, with the atheists and their goodness and
their morality claims is that all your ethical codes of conduct sound
strangely similar to the principles inherent to the Judeo-Christian
traditions. As a matter of fact, it seems as if you have bellied up to
the Bible and are treating it like a buffet . . . passing up on the
worship of the person and work of God, while taking second helpings of
His moral principles, you duplicitous, little, evolved monkey, you.

He got *something* correct, at least.
