QUOTE : Religionists do not apparently wish to acknowledge the secularist’s claim that moral behavior is, or can be, a product of the individual’s rational decision as to what is honorable and conducive to the smooth running of society, or even the long-term advantage to oneself. They instead fear that the average person will “run amok” and be completely amoral without the impetus of religion – without, in other words, the heavy emotional burden of realizing that his or her actions are constantly being monitored by a supernatural scorekeeper who, upon the individual’s death, will make a tally and determine the person’s ultimate destination, either above or below.
