I have the God given right to say anything if there are none of the absolutes. But there are absolutes. So, I stay by the "there is no good in atheism."

Thus, an atheist has become free from these old traditional ways of thinking.

Atheist: "there are very Good atheists."

So, now we all agree, that there is Absolute Evil and Absolute Good in this world?

Atheist: "No, we don't."

So, there is no good in atheism.

Correct. there is no good in atheism nor any bad in it. It is the lack of beliefs in gods, that is all.

So since what you claim is not truly true, it is Evil!!!

Prove that there is nothing good in atheism, I tried that for years my self before. But you know, I found atheists to be just as good as theists, sometimes even better in different part of life.

The only difference. They do not believe in a God, I do.

You seem to be quite stuck in absolutist thinking. Ideological rather than actual. It's causing you to make some very unrealistic pronouncements.

"Good" is an opinion or value.
Everyone has those....even you.

*** Mod Edit ***

Most atheists live by the Golden Rule - "Treat others as you would like to be treated yourself"
And that includes not trolling Eastern Orthodox Christianity

Some humans are good and some humans are bad(or evil if you prefer) regardless of being religious or not religious.
Some of the most hypocritic, hateful, dishonest, etc people I've met have been religious, and I have met some non-religious that were the same way.
In my opinion for many peoole, religion doesn't change who they are, it only changes what they show of theirself to many others.

Terrible self serving circular logic to justify an egocentric ancient tribal world view.

How does anyone actually make this assessment? And how is it even helpful?

Isn't basic good and evil enough? Adding "absolute" seems to be trying to declare something as if you're a God yourself. Instead it illustrates how flawed the human mind can be as it struggles with understanding anything.
