"Psychopathy (/saɪˈkɒpəθi/) (or sociopathy (/ˈsoʊsiəˌpæθi/)) is defined as either an aspect of personality or as a personality disorder, characterized by enduring dissocial or antisocial behavior, a diminished capacity for empathy or remorse, and poor behavioral controls or fearless dominance. There are various definitions which are only partly overlapping and sometimes appear contradictory."
Funny, I had a very specific user in mind writing this and he is not a athiest.

It all boils down to what's in the well. If garbage is thrown in, garbage comes up in the bucket. Consciousness is programmable. It is also resistant to false ideals. This is a cognitive dissonance for the person who continually immerses the mind in emotional stimulus. Impenetrability is the state in which two things cannot occupy the same space. We tend to think of this in terms of the material, but it works inside as well. Emotion can rule intellect. When this is the state of mind, the intellect is pushed aside by the stronger force. Knowledge is not intellect. Far from it. Knowledge is perceived axioms of truth, but wisdom is the proper use of what you know to reveal higher axioms as fact. Most people already possess a vast potential to absorb knowledge, but hinder the reception with low self-esteem.

Maslow covered this with his hierarchy of needs. If needs are not met well by the family in the early years, the later years are spent trying to meet those unmet needs. This is accomplished by self-gratifying behavior that feeds the ego and emotional need left by the family. Being nourished in a loving environment early in life leaves us satisfied, even if needs are missing later. Seeking knowledge is a byproduct of good self-esteem, but all the knowledge in the world will not help you unless you express it back out with wisdom.

This is because information is in formed. It must grow like a seed. Emotional intelligence is water to the seed. Intellect is light. It takes a well-founded heart to provide the soil. This is what the Christian faith can do for anyone. It's not the religion that accomplishes this. It's faith and love for the Spirit of God that prepares the soil. Once the soil is prepared, the heart blooms and wisdom rules the house.

Intellect over emotion is only possible when we have faith it is. Hope can only come from faith, which is our ability to collapse meaningful wave functions toward a determined future. This is what Hope is. It leads to Love. Love is the byproduct of faith and hope. The heart is the mirror, which allows you to see yourself in the other person. Once you do, you can never harm them. The law is removed. No need for law if you love others.

It's simple physics.

People who are willing and eager participants in a system based upon blackmail and threats, with a history of doctrinally-supported genocide and other assorted acts of evil, who both justify and glorify those acts of evil, are the psychopaths.

Christianity is basically organized social psychopathy, both in theory and especially in practice.

You know in the part you bolded you described the god of the bible perfectly?

By enduring dissocial or antisocial behavior.
-God rarely had contact and one only with one tribe at that before christ, and has not communicated directly with any person since paul.

A diminished capacity for empathy or remorse
-God ordered the genocide ofMidianites, Canaanites and Amalekites, to be slaughter with mercy and is angry when mercy is shown to the Amalekites. He has yet to show any remorse.

Poor behavioral controls or fearless dominance
God demonstrates both.
In genesis he destroys the tower of babel and scatter the poeple to the four winds because he was afraid of them. In genesis he also killed everyone on earth except moah and his family, because they didn't do what he wanted.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

So much bullshit, so little time , , ,

If you condemn Christ, you are condemning yourself. This is because we are all one loaf. The same Lord of the Old Testament is you in a mirror. Very few people realize this. Christ is the possibility.

Strongwaters your the one that said we are atheists because we are pyschopaths, you just used fancy language to do it.

I don't know, I haven't ordered anybody to dash the brains of infants against the rocks lately.

Not terribly concerned about condemning a guy who was a fraud and a blackmailer, if not outright fictional.

NO it is not, you have no proof anything to that we need saving from I.e hell. And how can it be a mirror when most of us here find slavery and rape and misogyny repulsive?

Classic way of attempting to boost his own ego and sense of self worth by generalising about others. I've encountered it before, though this ego is definitely larger than many . . .

Oh he has a long to go before he catchs up with sleepy and drich. Then again so would your average politician.

The difference is that some of us are well-bred, while some others are just half-baked.
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.'
