Dershowitz v. Keyes
From Pharyngula today:
"... it's Dershowitz, who has supported torture, vs. Keyes, who is simply insane."
"In North America today, according to a recent census, there are 27 million people who are not religious and a million and a half avowed atheists. There is no evidence to suggest they are less moral than those who go to synagogue, mosque, and church everyday. Indeed, it is my contention that a truly moral person, who acts morally--not out of fear of damnation or out of promise of reward, but because it's the right thing--if anything, is more moral."
