If Hitchen's challenge is correct, then why are there ethical lapses?

No most atheists are not agnostic that Ive come across in personal experience.  Perhaps Im mistaken and if so my apologies.

Yeah, that's a huge assumption on your part. The only atheists you know are probably the vocal atheists who hate religion. You never hear about the quiet ones unless the topic is brought up. 

I don't know the religiosity of 80% of the people I know. I've just never cared to ask. Of the other 20%, they are either extremist Christians or atheists. I don't know the moderate Christians or atheists because they never care to talk about it. So it would be silly for me to assume that all Christians or atheists are like the ones I know about, because those people are the extremes.
