A defense of the song 'No God:'
I was just listening to it and latched onto the line, "Just a small intuition not to do what all the bad ones did." I remember around release a lot of religious adherents on the forum were not very thrilled at the idea of the song, and I believe the reasoning was that it seemed to convey, "I learned how to treat others and be a good person on my own, and I didn't need religion to show me the way," and it seemed like it rejected an apparent claim by organized religions to possess a monopoly on moral instruction.
I propose a new interpretation: not believing in God/adhering to religion does not excuse me or anyone from maintaining an upright and moral character. In other words, the speaker might not merely be saying that he doesn't need to believe in God/fear eternal punishment to be and act morally (sorry for the double negative, hope you guys understood that), but indeed that unbelief doesn't hold up as a way to "plead ignorance" or wave away that justification as nonsense; fear of divine retribution for sin should not be the only consequence motivating people to strive to do good in their lives. We should all try to just be decent human beings to one another, and not sitting in on religious lessons about good and bad doesn't preclude you making these distinctions based on life experiences. Religion gives structure, purpose, and meaning to behaving so and there's nothing wrong with finding meaning in your life and actions in the context of faith. But not accepting or agreeing with that attribution of cosmic purpose to moral instruction or the prescribed consequences doesn't render knowing and heeding the difference between right and wrong as meaningless or that you're absolved from seeing any meaning in those moral lessons.
Basically, religion shouldn't have to threaten us with an eternity in Hell to motivate us to just be good people, nor should it hinge on agreeing with the way religion treats/justifies those moral precepts. The value of upholding a moral character is inherent, not something you choose to acknowledge or not based on faith or lack thereof.
