This is just another example of the authors of the Bible being caught in their lies.

We know that there do indeed exist atheists who do good works. So Psalms is exposed as being less than truthful.

My sister is an atheist and I know that she has higher morals that most religious people I know. She's even a vegan because she refuses to contribute to the slaughtering of animals and using them for food. She clearly has moral values that far surpass most Christians who eat meat, etc.

So the Bible clearly contains lies.

Being a righteous person cannot possibly depend on a belief in a God anyway. That itself would be an oxymoron because it would mean that no unrighteous person could even become righteous. Why not? Well, because, as Psalms says, "There are none that doeth good works", and to convert to become a righteous person would be an act of "good works". So the fable was flawed even without actual conflicting examples.

This whole religion just tries to make out like anyone who refuses to buy into it is an abomination to God. That very ideal can only have come from egotistical men who are trying to sell their own personal religion onto others.

The more I read these biblical verses the more I see verification that this religion cannot possible be from any all-wise God.

In fact, wisdom tells me that if we have a Creator and that Creator sees an atheist doing Good Works even though that person does not believe in a God, that would have to please God far more than seeing religious people do good works simply because they are attempting to avoid damnation or win a trip to eternal Disneyland.

An Atheist who does good works is clearly doing them solely because it's what They Personally Desire to Do. In other words, they would have trumped the motivation of any religious person, because they would be righteous of their own accord without any need to be threatened by God or offered a prize to motivate them. The Atheists believe that they are simply going to cease to exist when they die. Yet they are righteous anyway.

Now that has to be the most impressive sight any all-wise God could ever possible witness. A child who needs no instructions, threats, or motivations to do the RIGHT THING. What could possibly please a Creator more than that?

A righteous atheist would be the epitome of a prefect child.
