No, no.  It is needed especially by those who don't follow the dictates of a magic sky fairy.  Stone tablets are clunky and an offense to human dignity but if it will keep in check anti social inclinations, meh.

But empathy is good for you.  It makes people more tolerant and less churlish.

Come on, if you saw her in the shower you'd go lock yourself in your bedroom for awhile or else have a cardio event.
