    “I’m only a good person because the invisible sky daddy makes me be good.”

    You’re not a good person if someone is holding you back from being a bad person.

      I agree. But from a civility standpoint, if someone needs a bolt-on substitute for a conscience and do so voluntarily, I’m all for it. Good news is that vehicle stickers and t-shirts like this let people self-label which is really darn handy.

      I want science, reason, and logic to prevail but clearly not everyone does okay with that.

        Yes, but their “bolt-on substitute for a conscience” is only for straight white christian men, who are specifically their kind of christian.
