@Moment-in-Time,
												Quote:but my personal belief with respect to his, regarding the existence of a god, is interchangeable. My assessment of a "hard-core atheist" is one who is unwavering in his/her central belief that there is no god.
 
But God is a euphemism for the inhibitions of conduct in the sexual field, to all intents and purposes.  The law deals with everything else.  
So banging on about God is just a nice way of banging on about the sexual inhibitions of the Christian church.  The Catholic Church to be more precise. For or against.  The official position I mean and not what a handful of its perceived officials do.  
"God" lets people off from facing reality.  Sexual promiscuity and decadence is the reality.  
As an abstract entity God is un-discussable when not connected to reality.  Some Pagan gods were so "loose" that they are spoken of in veiled terms.  Those who are innocent of what "loose" covers notwithstanding.  Shagging a neighbour's spouse is very mild indeed.  
The atheist who doesn't ignore the Church's sexual  morality is just a fool.  The other 85% will simply assume those teachings are, or have been, ignored anyway and draw the appropriate conclusions.
