Satan holds back on tempting atheists to do evil. If all atheists went around killing people, it would be too obvious that God is the source of morality.

However, atheists don't ALL kill people, and are a small part of prison populations, so it's so obvious that your god is not the source of morality. Neither are the churches. . .as the continual sexual abuse cases show very clearly.
How very convenient for your religion with its several thousand year history of ceaseless bloodshed, rape & slavery committed in the name Yahweh and in keeping with his laws. Otherwise it might look like Abrahamism was the vile blight upon humanity with no redeeming value whatsoever. Very fortunate, indeed.
If all atheists went around killing people, it would only prove that,for some non-obvious reason, that atheists were all homicidal. By your logic, since very few atheists commit homicides, it is too obvious that God is not the source of morality.
Instead it becomes obvious that Satan is the source of good morals, and your god is a nasty, evil little monster.
Thanks for clearing that up.
I'll remember that one the next time someone tries to tell me that Hilter, Stalin, Pol Pot, et al. prove that atheists are suuuuuper eeeeevil.
