Atheism is the absence of religion. We don’t really need atheism. We just need to get rid of religion.

Behaving morally because of a hope of reward or a fear of punishment is not morality. Morality is not bribery or threats. Religion is bribery and threats. Humans have morality. We don't need religion.
