This feels like satire, and that's saying a lot
In my opinion, people who don't need the threat of eternal damnation to be "good" people have better morals because they aren't motivated by anything other than just not being a piece of shit. They're naturally good people
You're telling me if someone has the urge to murder, but this fairy tale sky daddy is telling them they'll be in eternal pain for doing so, that they're morally better than someone who doesn't have the urge to murder? "I would love to kill someone but I'm a selfish evil asshole and I myself don't want to be in pain so I won't kill this person, not out of empathy, but out of selfishness"
You gotta be trolling
