It doesn't. It just makes you part of the herd.

You put it most excellent well.

"There are no good gods, boy!"

One dialogue enough to define the nature of god.

It doesn't, It makes you a psychopath on an imaginary leash.

It's complicated. 😂

That god-bothering doesn't improve morality is just another one of the myriad lies. As we can all see, it does exactly the opposite.

I get it, but why are so many wanting to be a good and moral person or arguing about it?

It doesn't, so that's why I do what I think is right.
As long as I'm not harming anyone, I do what I want to.

It's not that fucking hard!

It's not about being good or moral, it's more about being so shit scared of being sent to hell that you obey without question just in case.

I simply cannot fathom being that afraid of anything.
Especially shit that doesn't exist.

@KKGator As the adage has it
Having an imaginary friend is childish
Having an imaginary enemy is insane.

It's not so much being good and moral, but rather about being able to feel superior to people who do not share your beliefs.
