Lazy Atheism?

[Angrboda]

Kind of sad that people think they have to take up christianity to embrace charity. Charity for charities sake is enough, at least for me.

Sounds like the deed is charity and christianity is merely lip service/label. I see little point

In the world as it currently exists, a lot of people motivate and structure their charity through religion. 

We could obviously imagine a world in which things work differently, but that would be counterfactual speculation. Maybe there could be other ways to do it, in scenarios that we would like better.

The point I was making is that people who work this way often don't need anything that you or I would consider proof.

People implicitly believe that what they hold to be true is reasonable. It's a part of human nature. So it's more that they aren't self-conscious about it.

It's also worth noting that people don't doubt their own beliefs, they doubt the beliefs of people who are different. Christians don't doubt their beliefs, but they doubt the beliefs of atheists. Atheists don't doubt their beliefs, but they doubt the beliefs of theists. And one group of Christians will fight another group of Christians.

We are an outward-facing species.
