Elroy, this is typical of the delusion that you can't be a good person unless you subscribe to a particular set of beliefs/rituals whatever. Although the most outwardly religious people I know have proven themselves to have weak and addictive natures, religion gives them stability. Fair enough, but we are not all weak of character.
With or without religion, good men will do good things and bad men will do bad things. To get good men to do bad things - that takes religion. (read that somewhere)
You may have the wrong idea of my views, really I don't ridicule people for their beliefs, each to their own, I just arc up when they say that if you don't believe "in God" you can't be a good person. That's the path to true evil IMO
