A person in general isnt a very good one, we all have bad thoughts and do bad things, most people use religion to make themselves feel better for what they've done. And in somecases, entices them not to do what they truly wish to, for the reward of eternal life. In other words it helps keep the animals in control that can't control themselves.
Live every day as if already dead, that way you're not disappointed when you are. Big Grin
