God set the standard for right and wrong.

Meh, I would just say they aren’t good people.

Or bureaucracy

or any kind of belief in some "greater good" ...

both Shit-Libs and Wing-Nuts do evil in the name of such "greater good" which is equally imaginary in both cases, but only religious for the right wingers ...

but of course you can also consider Climatology, Branch Covidianism etc. religions in their own right ...

basically "the end justifies the means" line of thinking where the means are real but the end is imaginary ...

For sure. They’re all “religions” in their own right. I was going with the road to serfdom meaning of bureaucracy https://fee.org/resources/the-road-to-serfdom-chapter-10-why-the-worst-get-on-top/

Disagree. For good people to do evil you need warped incentives. I would argue you can follow the breadcrumbs back to the central banks.

you so wrong dumb dumb

You found the source: Steven Weinberg

How do you know what is good and what is evil?

Or politics

Basically it just needs an ideology that runs you

Not always.

Religion won't stop people from being dumb.

If you are dumb with a religion, sorry for you. I'd you are dumb without q religion, sorry too.

Religion is no vaccine against dumbness.

But If you are clever, with or without religion, you are still clever
