Only by a saving knowledge of the God Who made us (and made us to be better than we are by nature) do human beings have the moral character to choose good, defer our own wants, and serve others.

Once again, are you saying that atheists, pagans and heathens are incapable of choosing good, defering their wants and serving others? There are millions of examples around the world and throughout history that would put the lie to your claim.

Methinks it's pretty obvious that the only thing keeping you in check is faith in the Almighty. Regardless of your claims, however, others may not share your lack of self control sans external force.
