Oh yes, the famous argumentum-ad-Stalin-was-an-atheist-therefore-all-atheists-are-evil.

I didn't say all atheists are evil, I said atheists are guilty of horrendous crimes. You guys try to protray athists as some kind of peace-loving population and that just isn't so. Most of the atheist societies committed the worst crimes committed by government in the 20th century.

I don't know where you get that from. I never said that, and I've never heard of anybody saying anything like that. Not only are you trying to make us look guilty of mass-murder by the most exagerated of associations, but you're being dishonest about it.

I could quibble about the accuracy of that claim, but even assuming that statement is correct, so what? In one thirty-year period, Christian religious wars wiped out one-third the population of Europe. There are lots of bad people out there, and your argument just doesn't cut it. This isn't a debate between Vlad the Impaler and Joseph Stalin here.
