Indeed, there is quite a distinction. Not believing in religion shows nothing about moral standards. Someone can think the concept of higher beings is entirely false, yet still exhibit a strong sense of morality. After all, non-religious people are still people.
The vibe of wrong that I feel stems from the disrespect in regards to having a religion. It seems to spread throughout each related story - even unto this story. One user posts a comment here about how purely evil religious people are. This receives a positive response.
I'm not bothered by the fact that someone does not believe. I'm bothered by the fact that someone ridicules and insults just because another believes. That's all.
Is it normal religious people are good people
