The sentence above is not true, there are many atheists who lead moral lives just as there are many people of God leading immoral lives.

So what does that prove, especially coming from someone who allegedly is working for the cause of canonization of Blessed Joseph Vaz, and then flip-flops? Even criminals have a moral code of conduct amongst themselves and the same perhaps could be said of Satanic cults. I thought Goanet encouraged member postings and wanted them to recommend others to join. But the current trend of bashing, dissecting and nitpicking would dissuade many. Only those with inferiority complexes have hang-ups with people of white, black or yellow colour. We need to learn to live and let live as we move to greener pastures.
