Isn't that one of the things you atheists don't like about religion? Or are is any moral stigma attached to hypocrisy suddenly lifted just because you stop believing in God?

atheists don't need morals

There is no logical progression between Atheism and immorality. I challenge you to prove otherwise.

That's not what Atheism is at all.
The reason people don't believe in god is not only because it can't be observed in any way known to man, but also because the very idea of 'god' totally contradicts the main reason for believing in a deity in the first place.

Still waiting for you to back up your ridiculous claims with evidence.
By the way, behaving out of fear of hell isn't an example of 'morality' in the slightest. It is nothing but blind obedience.

I love how you're not only making yourself and every atheist look like some stupid person who only converted to not feel guilt about committing adultery. You didn't explain why atheism makes "moar" sense than religion and either way why does it offend you and every other atheist that someone believes in a deity anyway? So what? DO they have morals*? Do they still treat others with respect even though you don't respect them? Do they care if you think your religion is better than yours?
*Don't bother responding "You don't need religion to have morals", because you shouldn't even bother saying that because you've done something bad in your life one time or another. As long as they're not one of those guys you make up, killing gay people and non-virgin women, it shouldn't bother you.

Lemme guess... someone will respond to this post telling me that I'm forcing my beliefs on others.

Excuse me for a moment of what seems like, and what probably is, a moment of self-pity. I'm happy that my comment has been reviewed thoroughly and that this apparently never-ending argument has reached a cool ending in which agencies out of our control are taken out of the argument and that the age of information is used as a truly great way of thinking about things like this. Actually, only one person can put it perfectly I think:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5IIXeR5O UI

That feels pretty good to me. Well, it doesn't at all, but you get me.

Ok what I'm saying is, in an atheist world would be like for example atheists can believe in evolution although it has flaws but atheists can change them and the things about morals well the bible is based on morals you read it a few times it's about morals not much of obedience (except for the ten commandments and hell etc.) If we didn't have morals then the bible would not be made In the first place. (read the whole damn thing This is my opinion though) and opinions don't need morals

So when christians convert an atheist, they're forcing their beliefs. But when an atheist converts a christian, it's something to be proud of? Way to be a hypocritical bigot... Which is just what many atheists accuse ALL christians of being...

Belief in evolution is not exclusive to Atheism.

and the things about morals well the bible is based on morals you read it a few times it's about morals not much of obedience (except for the ten commandments and hell etc.)

What's your point? I asked you to justify the assertion that Atheism leads to immorality. You have done nothing but tapdance around the whole subject after bringing it up.

If we didn't have morals then the bible would not be made In the first place. (read the whole damn thing This is my opinion though) and opinions don't need morals

I thought the whole reason for this "ten commandments" stuff is because people needed guidance and morality. Now you're telling me that if people didn't have morals, there would've been no need for the bible and its teachings anyway? Are you sure you've read the thing?

Atheism is to not believe in a god, not the belief there is no god. There is a big difference.

Saying you believe there is no god would be ignorant as there is no way to prove or disprove god. However Atheists choose to not believe in a god, which is perfectly fine because god has not been proven - giving no reason to believe in him/her.

This same rule goes to Christians, Muslims etc. except they seem to break it once in awhile. Placing your beliefs solely in a book is your personal choice, but you may not use that belief as an argument (e.g. "How can Mary be a virgin if she has had a child?" typical response being "It says so in the bible" the christian's argument becomes invalid).

Basically, anyone can believe in anything they want, but you do not have the right to say what is wrong or right based on your belief - which has no scientific backup.

Scenario:

I believe my dog talks. Me and my dog have had long conversations that go on for hours on end. One night my dog said to me "you must kill the president" and so I did. I believe what I did was right because my dog had told me to do so and in my view my dog's words are almighty so you have to follow this belief as well.

Wrong. Morals are something (I would hope) people are taught throughout their life. One of my morals is to take a look at both sides of the argument before jumping in guns blazing. I am an Agnostic. Therefore, I am an Agnostic with morals. The same could be said with Atheists.

Atheism is based on logic and Religion is based on faith.

Both faith and logic can be bent. This is why I choose to be Agnostic, as proof can never be changed.
