So many atheists are ruled by emotion

It's amazing how easy it is to reduce atheists to a miserable mass of quivering feeling, devoid of reason or common sense.

All I did was tweet this:

@StevenZoeller I admit to curiosity as to why an atheist would find rape and bullying morally reprehensible.

And got a firestorm!
My favorite tweet in the ruckus was this one:

@buffsblg @cherokee_autumn @StevenZoeller Yet you just said our society changes. Maybe someday rape will be right. #fromyourowngallows

And then it got even better:

@Rhology @buffsblg @cherokee_autumn @StevenZoeller I actually think this IS a problem, but religion doesn't solve it.

I had to bow out after somewhere around 50 attempts on my part to get these atheists to reason consistently. Canard after canard after canard... I don't think a single one of them had ever even thought about my challenge before. I didn't have time to keep up with all of the shambling inanity, so this combox is an open invitation to anyone who would question me on the matter.
