In the above one does not see a very convincing attempt at backtracking nor at being a poor victim of aggression. One sees persistent denigration and self-righteous religious chauvinism when it comes to atheism. The writhing and squirming in the above quote makes one wonder: 1. What is the relationship between "moral tenets", "religious tenets" and "well defined universal tenets"? 2. Who are the "disorganized atheists", and why are they morally inferior to organized atheists such as the communists or organized theists such as Bush and Ahmadinejad? 3. In what way are the "religious tenets" of the organized atheistic religions of Buddhism and Jainism "the same as" the "moral compasses" of Christianity? Cheers, Santosh
