And conveniently ignore the fact that we would have virtually no charities, hospitals and institutions of higher learning without Christians because Christians are the ones who founded those institutions and continue to fund them in large part. How many atheist or agnostic charities, hospitals or universities can you name? Case closed.

Give me a break. What? Now Atheist never donate to charity? There are many charities without religious purpose that atheists create and contribute to. I am sure many atheists contribute (Both Monetary and Time) to religious charities for the sake of the practical good they do.

It would seem kind of silly to build a hospital or a University just to say "I do not believe in God" that’s like holding a party to say "Today is not my birthday"

Actually, It seems kind of self-righteous and pety to use charity as an excuse to plug your religious beliefs and recute followers.

There isn't much difference between that the Liberals using Government programs to buy votes.
