Original quote:

"I say atheism can not claim absolute morality and the morals they claim are taken from Christianity. Or at the least from religion.
So I am now calling on the atheist community to prove me wrong."

Champoogne:
I was raised to believe that you should treat others as you wish to be treated. That you should never force your will on someone else. And you don't really need to be on this planet very long to realize that it's in everyone's best interests to get along. It's a lot more pleasant that way. We are all people sharing the same space and everyone's got the right to live comfortably and harmoniously. And, I simply fail to see why God must be a part of that equation. Or any other higher power.

Mademoiselle:
Who taught you that? And who taught them that? So you aren't religious and think you don't need God to be moral? Maybe your parents weren't either but maybe your grandparents were or your grandparents parents.... And this is where they got it from:
Luke 6:31 (KJV)
"31 And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise."

Champoogne:
Or maybe it was a long string of atheists/agnostics? Why are you assuming that if we go back far enough in time we'll eventually hit someone who believed in God?

Mademoiselle:
Because we will. Unless you can prove otherwise.

Champoogne:
It doesn't work that way, sorry.
Extreme logic fail.

Mademoiselle:
Yes it does. Provide proof that every single one of your ancestors have never ever ever been exposed to and influenced by Christianity.
