Sounds Like Atheists Need Some "Safe Church" Training

Do Atheists Have A Sexism Problem?  [Short answer: Yes.  Slightly longer answer: "New Atheism" seems like a less fun, much more pretentious form of ComicCon.]

Internal monologue of an atheist:
"But, but, but...we're rational!  It's religion that promotes misogyny, right?  Because if sexism is a portion of human nature, then that means we can't blame 'instituional' religion.  That also means that we would need some moral foundation from which to rise above base human nature.  Where on Earth could we find such a thing?"
