To Sam Harris and all you lot: Yeah, right. As if people need religion as an excuse to be aholes. They can do bad all by themselves.
Re: your declaration that North Korea is not truly an atheist country.
Who was it that said that a lot of moderate religious types, no matter what the denomination, have a sort of stock answer? If confronted with the reality of self-proclaimed "Muslims" or "Christians" committing violence and abuse, the moderate declares that those are not "real" Muslims or Christians. Therefore this declaration, and subsequent refusal to discuss nitty gritty details, kills any meaningful discussion of the topic.
Oh, that was you, wasn't it?
I hate to break it to you... aw hell, no I don't. Revelation: you are using the exact same argument that religious types use, only now it is framed from your reference.
