Egypt on Thursday finally banned all female circumcision, the widely-practised removal of the clitoris which just days ago cost the life of a 12-year-old girl.
Officially the practice, which affects both Muslim and Christian women in Egypt and goes back to the time of the pharoahs
Her mother accused the woman doctor of negligence, charging that her daughter's death was linked to the anaesthetic and not the removal of the clitoris, for which she had paid 50 pounds (nearly nine dollars).

my question is this: what is the worse thing you have seen done in the name of atheism?

It may be done in the name of religion but is NEVER done in the name of Christ.

Stalin and the others mentions did not do what they did in the name of Atheism. That is a very uneducated comment.
Atheism is just the non belief in god. I can't quite see how one could do anything in the name of a non belief.
But you crazy Christians believe anything is possible so who knows.

I'm not certain of what point you believe is proved with this case. Yes, many horrible things have been done in the name of religion. If you pay attention to communism, many horrible things have also been done for the purpose of stamping out religion. It seems that all that this proves is that people are capable of doing many horrible things, which really supports the Bible's contention that we are sinners in need of a Savior.
Blessings.

There are many more horrible and most cruel things done in the name of religion.
Islam ranks on top in this category.
