Why believe in God? Just be a good guy.

I saw this on TV recently and I think its a very effective line. You dont have to put reason to being good like "God will punish you if you are not good"  but seriously, just be a good guy.

It is really pissing me off when people try to defend their religion that it is the only thing that keeps the world from spiraling to total anarchy and chaos. That is so 1700's!  Civilization will not fall and enter into chaos if we remove religion, what is important if you have a personal relationship with a creator and civilization will be just fine.  Chaos without organized religion my ass

indeed, religion has nothing to do with chaos. not all religions lead (or have successfully encouraged) their followers to do ethically and morally correct acts. while the catholic church is preaching about doing/being good and loving one's neighbor, many politicians, for example, who claim to be Catholics are the ones bringing hell to the lives of many people, especially to the Filipino nation...
