    The best part about Sunday morning is that I get the roads all to myself with all the churchlings hiding away at worship.

    Probably not much. Knowing right from wrong is about empathy, not religion.

    Believe in Truth and nothing else...
    Experience the Truth within...
    stop going around in circles
    with thoughts and ego trips
    that go nowhere...
    ...that's what matters.
    the Truth of existence lies within,
    find it
    indulge in it,
    ... cut out all of the 
    chasing of illusions...
    and all will be well 
    and understood.

    Loss of hope and ambition and care for others which is pretty much what you are already seeing now.

    That is the way religious people would see it but according to the Psychology Today article a secular society fares better than a religiously devout society.
