Self-worship aka selfishness is the world's oldest and perenially most popular religion. "Ye shall be as gods!"

Every religion except true Christianity (which really isn't a 'religion'), if you dig down to the core, is man-centered; and leads to futility, emptiness and darkness.

Do I expect to convince you? Nope.

Why? Because even though the evidence is all around you; in history, in nature, in reason, in the testimony of untold millions of people who have experienced the salvation described in the New Testament; you will call all of it unsupported generalizations.

But I will pray for you.

I call it unsupported generalizations when you claim that all atheists are sociopaths (or that they all become sociopaths) because you have to show that every single person who lacked belief in a diety became a sociopath to prove that your statement is true or prove empirically that atheism leads to sociopathy by definition. You have failed to do either.

As for evidence in history or reason, show it. Pointing out infamous atheists to "prove" your point is the spotlight fallacy.
