Let's assume that the majority of atheists and christians are good people although we know there are people on either side that just do not make their group look very good.
Atheists and Christians both live their lives, follow the rules (common sense or biblical depending your point of view) and if they do something wrong they both feel remorse and try not to do that something wrong again.
The core difference then lies in that Christians ask a spiritual being God/Jesus/Holy Spirit to forgive them for what they just did, while atheists feel bad and more or less forgive themselves.
Is this real difference? It seems such a small insignificant thing. We are all basically the same, so we should stop judging each other based on the difference within this one small point.
