The reason is a form of neural blackmail. If you think of said outcome, MIND MORALITY CENTER ACTIVATE, and you get a feeling of emotional pain. Not everyone will comply with this kind of tough love instruction, but they usually will. Too much. Maybe. I thought you were finally starting to understand what morality was. Oh, was i wrong, because this is not morality but merely one of the starting points to generate the ideas behind right and wrong(morality). And then it gets more complicated with the rationalizing part of the brain, that can justify this reasoning based on himself living in a society of people.
Obviously Jack is lacking a necessary system of the mind, and should be locked up, as he is lacking is the social systems and cannot be trusted to act in a social environment.
Talk about instincts all you want. Jack doesn't care. He wants to disembowel a prostitute and he has nothing to lose. What reason does HE have to not disembowel a prostitute if there is no god and an afterlife?
