That would seem to make any gods in the equation rather irrelevant. With a god or without, we are apparently capable of good and bad things. The only difference, it seems to me, is that all too often the person with a god will use it to justify his/her bad actions, or claim some sort of moral superiority due to having a personal saviour to whom they can confess and be forgiven.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
