Did you see Dr. Laura Slesenger (sp?!) come out and say just that?  Can you
imagine someone who thinks they need to believe in gods in order to be moral
and behave?  When these people twigg to the fact that they don't have gods,
it's a wonder they don't just pick up rifles and just start shooting -- that
would be the natural consequences of their insane beliefs.
Atheists exhibit either the higher morality or the greater intelligence;
either they don't committ crimes else they get away with them.

Because you don't believe in invisible playmates.  Amazing.  How do people
who believe this nonsense reconcile their belief with the fact that nearly
every prison inmate in the United States is a Christian?  Obviously the
best way to stay out of prison is to be an atheist.
