    No, but I wish God was real.

    Humans are not evolved enough past our selfishness. If we all lived believing that our actions are being judged by a benevolent father figure, we’d have less people screwing each other over.

      Most of humanity legitmatly believed in some kind of god for most of history. It didn’t stop people from screwing each other over.

      But please, don’t make it the jealous, plague invoking version that needs a constant stream of souls sacrificed, from the old testament.

        I guess that’s inevitable. If you think that there is a maker, then you’d have to also explain things like natural disasters. Which leads to thinking that God is mad at us.

        This is not considering the corruption of the people in charge.
