It's hilarious how you complain about lack of substantiation when you have none yourself. Like the link I provided last time? In the matter of making claims, Arlon, it is still the case that the one making them has to justify them. In history atheism, for various reasons, although a 'thing' and with some famous adherents, was usually not so open and explicit for various reasons (such as outright persecution at certain times). I hope that helps. If you can find some terrible things done 'in the name of atheism' before the turn of the 19th century feel free to provide the links, I would be interested.

The link you provided does not say Jews killed anyone.

I am not sure where you got this impression, or why you feel it is a point you have to make. (In the light of your claim that ""People who have no religion often substitute something worse." it seems just another non-sequitur ) The idea that Christians do not have a moral code is a novel one. And I am sure you only failed to substantiate this most recent claim through an oversight.

Now all we have are the repeats. And we've heard it all before.
