In terms of anti-theistic regimes of the 20th century how well did they treat their citizens? Not well when you consider that practically every communist (anti theist) country of the 20th century slaughtered huge numbers of their own people and denied them a host of basic human rights. Consider the USSR, China, East Germany, Romania, North Korea, the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia etc etc. On the other hand, countries that we might consider "Christian" seemed to fare much better. I know where I'd rather live.
Here it is. We old timers know whats coming. INQUISITION. 600 years or so of christian rule. Oh yeah, that went well.
You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.
