The Trouble with Atheism
http://www.channel4.com/culture/microsites/C/can_you_believe_it/debates/talking_point_atheism.html
Channel 4, Mon 8pm
Is atheism really the antidote to religious fundamentalism?
In the past atheists were often persecuted in God-fearing societies.
Today they pose an open challenge to religious philosophies. Is a
society without God a society without a moral code? Or do human beings
create their own system of ethics?

The percentage of atheists in American prisons says it all.
