Reality disagrees; most inmates in prison are christian or moslem, with self-avowed atheistis making up less than one percent of the prison population.
Gipper = just another liar for Jesus who makes it clear he'd like to be a child molestor, thief and murderer and is held back only because he fears hell. Sad. And somewhat scary.

*sigh* Atheism doesn't tell people anything. People who do not believe in a higher power (for whatever reason) are simply classified as atheist. That's all it means, nothing else.
Atheists generally feel that since this is our only life we should not waste it. Sitting in a jail cell is wasting it. Christians believe that even if they spend their lives in jail there will be an afterlife and all they have to do is ask for forgiveness in order to go to Heaven. Child molesters, however, are people who have a sickness in that they put their satisfaction over the child's future mental and emotional stability and they are unable to control themselves knowing that there is a high chance they can be caught and jailed. Such a person doesn't molest or not molest simply based on person beliefs.
As for your third statement, a complete fabraction on your part as there are less atheists than Christians in the American prison system.

1. You are doing religious folk a grave disservice by implying that the only thing stopping them from committing these crimes is the threat of divine judgement.
2. Your assertion that most prisoners are atheists is demonstrably incorrect.
3. Atheists are subject to earthly punishment for the crimes you mention, the same as everyone else - surely this constitutes something to fear?
Believe it or not, while there are some who remain on the straight and narrow purely out of fear for themselves, most people choose to do the right thing out of respect and concern for others. So which category do you fall into, Gipper, you righteous Christian?

I am getting so god-damned tired of these idiots saying that atheists do all manner of vile, evil things simply because they don't think there will be a price to pay for it. Have any of you morons ever heard of Civil Laws and the Penal Code? And just so you don't misunderstand, the Penal Code has nothing to do with man genitalia.

So the only reason you don't molest, rape, murder, etc. is because you fear punishment?
You sick me, dude.

No, this is what happens if a person who feels they need divine punishment to keep them from doing evil stops believing in a source of divine punishment.
Most atheists don't think like that, fortunately. I just hope you never lose your faith, because then you'll see no reason not to murder everything that moves.

I was molested as a child. You know who did it? Christians.
Being Christian does not equal being a good person. Being an atheist does not equal being a bad person. Get that through your skull, thanks.

"a Christian can MOLEST and kill as many innocent children as POSSIBLE since Gawd will forgive him if he truly believes. This ALSO explains the rising NUMBER of child-molesters thieves and serial killers, as well as the concentration of christians as opposed to atheists in jail. While Atheists knows that EVIL behaviour will come right back around to bite them, hurts those they care about and will land them on the recieving end once they're in jail for a few years, Christians believe they have another life after this one, and as long as they 'truly believe' this life does not matter because they will go to Heaven, clearing their twisted conciences for any vile and cruel acts they wish to perpetrate, often in large groups or armies."

We do have a lot to fear my dear, mainly from people like you. And from AIDS.

So Gipper, following your line of reasoning, all admitted athiests should be rounded up and put into camps or prison because they are either (A) criminals or (B) will be in a matter of time. Ignorance and judgement have not served you very well have they?

Actually,empathy prevents one from commiting such horrendous crimes.
If you need some kind of reward in order to do the right thing,you are a sociopath at heart.

Lying for Jayzuz, teflon coated slipery slope,straw men,abuse of the caps lock. Yup, looks like a fundie.
Gipper is a moron. Atheism is not dangerous. Fanatical fundamentalism is.

I will never understand why so many fundie Christians believe that the fear of everlasting torment is the only thing preventing us all from giving in to our universal, deeply held obsessions for pedophilia, murder, and rape.

Ah, the old "Atheists have no giant evil skygod hanging them by the ankles over a giant pit of fire so they must be evil!"
Shame reality disagrees with, oh, everything Gipper said. And of course, if you need a big scary skygod with a giant pit of fire to threaten you into being a decent human being, well, you ain't no decent human being.
