Why be good?

[Thumpalumpacus]

But conversely, I think the "Mad Max" analogy used much earlier might have some truth to it in the total absence of God.

Japan has a much lower crime rate than America, despite the fact that it is by vast majority non-Christian.

You may "think" all you want, but when it's self-serving bullshit that is contradicted by real-world examples, you only reveal the shallow nature of your examinations.

We already have a total absence of god in our daily lives. He isn't there. He is non-existent. You have wasted so much of your life kneeling at the feet of a phantom. I honestly pity you in some small way.

Pity is wasted upon anyone who prefers to live on his knees, who deliberately abdicates his moral faculties, who can think for himself but chooses to not do so.
