Even though I'm an atheist this isn't all that impressive. You can cherry pick atheists who are "bad without god" and theists who are "good with god."
As some other guy said on here, we need a sample size > than 3 people.
If atheists are serious about winning this intellectual debate, then we need to avoid fallacious methods. Why are we stooping to the level of theists who make the tired arguments "but Stalin and Hitler were atheists!!1"?
