"why atheism is a burden not a benefit, page-79

"the Catholic church, the greatest source of good on the planet, the very foundation of the society you live in"

I assume this must be a different catholic church to the one that:

- protects paedophiles rather than children
- tortured and murdered non believers during the inquisition
- conducted genocide against non believers during the crusades
- supported the nazi genocide
- condemns millions of children to death via its stance on contraception
- suppression of democracy during reformation

Surely you mean "the greatest source of evil in the world". Reality is that our freedoms arose despite the Catholic Church not because of it.
