Oh, now don't even go there. I myself am an athiest, and I find myself to be very compassionate, thoughtful, and I think I am a good person. Now just because I am a good person because of myself and not because a book tells me how I should behave does not make me any lesser than you or anyone else. One's religion does not make them better or worse than anyone else, which is something that I think carries with many athiests.
