What if Everyone was Atheist?

[robvalue]

I think if everyone was Atheist, Most people will not have a base for whats right or wrong. Morality is there but applies to good natured people as far as i can see. If its in your DNA to be a bad natured person , there is no base to stop you from committing misdeeds. One can bring in law but people with no base to decide whats right or wrong will write the law. I cant imagine the outcome of such a world. Reminds me of the movie Equilibrium (2002).

Yabut, why would religion change anything?

If you're 'a bad natured person', why do you think being told to be good would change anything? How is religion different than law in this respect?

My thoughts exactly. You can make an argument that (irreligious) atheists are the most moral of all, when they are good people, because they are doing so without needing any external motivating factor.
