Batman 282: “Atheists gain some meaning (most of them anyway) from the sense that they are superior in intellect because they don’t need God for meaning. And they claim humanity doesn’t need God for ethics.”

Some atheists don’t want the Biblical God because they don’t want moral laws such as the 10 commandments and the golden rule. Such atheists prefer their new prophet – Karl Marx. Having rejected the Bible such atheists become Manifesto-thumping Marxists.

“There are, besides, eternal truths, such as Freedom, Justice, etc., that are common to all states of society. But communism abolishes eternal truths, it abolishes all religion, and all morality.” Karl Marx
