If I love God, I will keep His commandments -- of which thse second-most-important commandment is to love my neighbor as myself. I work at #2 because I embrace #1.
I think I already answered your other question, or tried to. It's good that the child-molestor drives the speed limit. He's still a child-molestor, though, isn't he?

Of course. But isn't he a child molestor, God believing or not? I would judge him on his actions, not his belief or non-belief in God.
I guess I am not sure I see the point. We both agree, good acts are good acts, and bad acts are bad acts. I do not think a motivating belief in God makes those same acts inherently better or worse - I see the acts themselves as the same regardless of the belief of the actor.
Is not the decision not to abort a fetus morally the same, whether or not motivated by a belief in God?
