a core problem with atheism is that the architecture sucks

Ive roughly the same problem with atheists, moral relativists, and anti free will determinists: Its weird that you overturned the fundamental underpinnings of our understanding of truth and morality and emerge with "pretty much what everyone already believes"

This is only true if by "religious institution" you mean "a few mainstream american protestant churches whose memberships have cratered concomitant with their espousal of secular morality"

It's really not to anyone who actually knows the history of any religion at all. But I'd like to hear where you derive morality from. Why, sans god, should I prefer you to not die in exchange for a penny? You're wet carbon, why care about your atomic arrangements?

If disarranging the structure of your external carbon layer places the arrangement of my sodium atoms in a state I prefer, what possible reason do I have to not disarrange your carbon?

would you be inclined to do this were you not confident you would otherwise go to hell

There are many external carbon layers I would like to disarrange yes. Aside from that tho, I've never met a person that didn't have some wicked thing they particularly loved. Are you gonna look me in the tweet and tell me you're the sainted exception untouched by sin?

im somewhat slothful but i dont see belief or lack of it changing that much otherwise i tend not to be inclined to treat others badly apart from occasionally mogging them when im cross i guess I still egregiously torrent stuff which arguably of violates thou shalt not steal

in a Jobian sense this is probably cheap talk as im pretty contented with my material life and if my circumstances were different perhaps my impulses would be as well
