And to be fair, you can't do anything in the name of theism either. Believing some sort of God or god is real doesn't link to any actions either. It has to be a specific deity who's desires you think you know and also think you should have to obey before you derive actions from a specific flavor of theism. A theistic religion like Christianity or Islam or Hinduism; or especially a particular sect of a religion can get you there; but not, for example, deism or 'somethingism'.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
