You know, little shit like that. Seems to me that the implication works a whole lot better the other way, and that claim is a demonstration of that point. Any person who makes it has lost a huge chunk of their credibility as a moral agent, or even a sensible one.
Oh yes. Anyone making that claim is admitting that they would be entirely happy to rape, murder and pillage if an imaginary being was not stopping them. It is far more descriptive of themselves than they have worked out.
