I've seen order kept well enough in secular places, and heard of some horrific corruption under the shadow of God. Atheists would say God has no importance in this world because He has no importance in their world -- presumptuous, yes, but how many of us remember that we can only ever speak for ourselves? Such paradigms are like... jawbreakers, banging against each other... and better to just agree to disagree, so shards of sugar won't go flying off into someone's eye on impact. Or discuss jawbreaker recipes, like here
