I think you are a good person, too.

But since you are an atheist, you are probably a dick.

Would you be willing to elaborate on this or direct me to a more in-depth perspective? As Blindy says, this is an interesting notion.

It's because religion provides morals for morality's sake (in a good vs. evil frame) as opposed to logic and science which provide morals for survival and pleasure's sake (in a survivable vs. unsustainable frame). Technically basic logic provides no morals but these are provided by biology and memes. These memes include religion. When one rejects laws of good and evil and realize that they are just varying degrees of altruism and/or selfishness presented in religion the conclusion is that behaviors are not kosher because God says so but because there's an actual, tangible reason for them (e.g. survival).
