1. There's no reason to restrict my behavior
2. There is no God
3. There is no soul that survives the body after death, and so, no judgement for one's behavior
You forgot to mention my reason... To bring about the "New Covenent"
"Christianity" has been used and abused by those in power to control the masses for centuries.
Hell is used to scare the populace into conformity.
Tithing is used to bilk the populace out of their money.
"Brotherhood" has been used to exclude people of different faiths and customs.
I would love to see the wealthiest organization in the world use their money to end world hunger, wouldn't you?
