The Morality of Theists and Atheists

More from the Ask Page!  My buddy chillinatthecabstand posed this question

Can you name one moral action done by a theist which could not be done by an atheist?
Can you name one evil action done by a theist which could not be done by an atheist?*
*As in they would never do it because it’s silly, not because they are physically incapable of doing it.

Chillin:  First off, that’s three questions, so I charge double.  I would have to say that the answer is no.  Morality is a character trait that is found in all people (theist and nontheist) that is dominant is some and less so in others.  If one subscribes to theism, that does not remove the ability to act immorally and one who does not believe in God is not incapable of moral actions.  That is why you have Christians committing immoral actions and atheists being philanthropists and vice versa.  As a Christian, I hold that all men were created in the image of God and even though sin has marred that, the communicalbe trait of morality is still present in all people in some form.  Christians are not by nature any “more moral” on their own, merely that they have had their immoralities atoned for.  Followers of God are supposed to seek hard after living a right and moral life, but we still fall because we are still human, but this does not negate the atonement.  In the same way, just because a nontheist may act morally most of the time, there is still a sinful nature in need of atonement.  So all that said to say, no, there is not an immoral action that a theist cannot commit and there is not a moral action that a nontheist cannot commit.  I hope this answered the question at least somewhat sufficiently.  Look forward to all your responses!
