those are not at all to be tolerated who deny the being of a God. Promises, covenants, and oaths, which are the bonds of human society, can have no hold upon an atheist.

As a fellow atheist I say "hear, hear" They can hate me all they want but I know that on average:
Atheists are smarter as well a better educated
Atheists are less prone to violence and make up a smaller share of our prison population than would be representative of the overal population
Atheists tend to be more ethical and act within so-called moral boudaries yet without the carrot and stick of religion
Atheists tend not to push their (lack of) faith in others
Atheists tend to bathe more*
Atheists are better in bed.

If their idea of an "American society" includes Bernard Law before it includes me, they can shove it.
