Who has more morals?

Atheists more than Christians. Abrahamic religions suffer from a lack of morality, rooted in the fact that their namesake was willing to kill his son at the command of God.

Quote:

Who is more tolerant?

Atheists.

Quote:

Who's more bigoted?

Both are exclusive-truth-oriented and therefore close-minded to the other worldview. As I’ve said more than once, Answers in Genesis and the Committee for Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal are very similar in their mindsets and operations.

Quote:

Who's self righteous?

Christians, though they deny it. They say they have only the righteousness of God, but they keep patting themselves on their backs for not being atheists, Muslims or pagans.

Bigoted: The abrahamics, of course. It's easy to be bigoted when you bible gives the death penalty for a wide range of perfectly normal behaviors.

Am I missing something here? A pot or a kettle?

Any faith (including none), any colour as long as it is black.
