How so? Is there like a number line all neatly laid out? I think people who are religious are already primed to believe in a higher power, be that God or Satan. They could be just as susceptible. Probably not worth letting your guard down.
I'll double down, satanists are better than atheists because at least they believe in god they just choose to worship the devil. Atheists don't believe in shit and therefore have no foundation for any moral code. Doesn't mean they don't have morals, just that they will easily cave to the devil.
Atheists actually use the Bible as their basis for their moral code. That’s the irony of it.. CS Lewis refers to it in Mere Christianity where he talks about “the law of nature” - there’s a universal moral code all people tend to reference, even atheists. Even in their God-hating, self-worship - they still reference biblical truths when it comes to morality. My favorite are the ones that are “my religion is kindness.” LOL.
I think it's funny he mentions the bible as the moral code for all of humanity but humans have been conquering and murdering since before and after the bible. Not much has changed except for all the people that have made an incredibly lavish living off of snake oil.
It's just funny to me how religion always tries to monopolize good behavior as its own... Like it authored it. Like people cannot behave well without it. Just more religifag wishful thinking.
“Like people cannot behave well without it.” You’re literally referencing the universal moral code Lewis talked about.
And listen, Jesus followers are not necessarily religious and are most certainly imperfect. When Christians go to church on Sunday they’re admitting their sin - their need for a savior. If they were perfect, they’d be out jogging with all those other perfect people on Sunday mornings.
Thats just retarded. Someone who willfully chooses evil is BETTER than someone who doesn't believe in things they cant see or objectively interact with. Ok
The greatest trick the devil played was convincing the world he doesn't exist. He is the root of all evil, and if you choose to ignore that then you are partaking in the evil.

Also, it’s kind of interesting to note that Lewis was a hardcore atheist before he came to Christ. Food for thought. JRR Tolkien ministered to him.
Who said anything about religion. God has nothing to do with religion. Christianity is a way of a Father with his children.
The rest is man-made bullshit to detract from what God has done. But God is no pushover and neither should his people be.

Even though you have hate in your heart I still love you.
