It appears to me that, to the extent atheists follow Judeo-Christian morality, they are being moral parasites. Atheism taken to its natural conclusion will result in sociopaths. Because, for any altruistic action on their part, one must ask “why?” Altruism on their part ultimately is in spite of their worldview, not because of it.
Exactly wrong. When I do an altruistic thing it’s because I WANT to. There’s no promise of heaven, no reward, no punishment, just being who I can be. Altruism for the atheist is entirely BECAUSE of their worldview, it’s their worldview that said “be good, even though nothing special will happen”. Anybody whose altruism is based solely on the promise of heaven is the sociopath, they’re being good for reward, it’s completely self serving.
