Atheist nations are the most peaceful nations!? But aren’t all Atheist’s devil worshipers who love to drink human blood and destroy religion??? If you are talking to your neighborhood religious nut about atheists, you certainly might have heard such accusations. Atheists are actually peaceful creatures with no “god” or ‘righteous religion” to defend against other religions and gods. Atheists are excellent promoters of peace because they see more commonality among humans than differences. Atheists also find it more probable that the life we live here on earth is the only one we have (no afterlife) so they go about making the best of it with humanitarian efforts.
Fellow blogger at Epiphenom as an excellent compilation of data for this peacful outcome for atheist nations.
Not suprisingly, New Zealand ranked on top the 2009 Global Peace Index. New Zealand also happens to be the most non-religious country on planet earth. No wonder I have been aching to live there…
