        Where this really gets interesting is when they try to make laws that go against nature

        Reminds me of Sam Harris/Jordan Peterson debates. Both were mostly right. Harris was right: U don't need religion to live a moral life, and JP was right that a religious narrative is compelling, which can make it easier for most people to live a moral life. Sam's way is harder.

        Allowing for objective morality compels one to religion, otherwise it’s incoherent.

        Humans are driven by instincts and acquired reflexes. The smart ones also use logic. Religion is for those who have defective instincts and reflexes and no logic.

        No, religion merely takes all credit for good behavior.

        “For when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do what the law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the law. They show that the work of the law is written on their hearts” (Rom. 2:14-15)
