Well, it’s more than that. If you don’t believe in God, why would you choose to be moral at all?
If this life is all you got, shouldn’t you be grabbing all you can get?
If your neighbor gets in the way, why wouldn’t you whack him?
To me, the Mafia represents true atheists.
In the interest of diverse viewpoints; what's your take on Brigham Young??
"Now if any of you will deny the plurality of wives, and continue to do so, I promise that you will be damned;
and I will go still further and say, take this revelation, or any other revelation that the Lord has given,
and deny it in your feelings, and I promise that you will be damned.
Brigham Young - JoD 3:266 (July 14, 1855)
