The religious are more likely to do evil IMHO
I can’t abuse children, or kill people for money, because I would feel like crap, and believe I had done a shameful thing, that never could be put right.
But all sins are forgivable in religion. There is no special distinction between child rape, and having been born a sinner of a child. The unsaved virtuous will burn, while the serial murder rapist rot head, who asks forgiveness shall go to heaven.
It’s hard to believe that, and yet we must explain why child molesters were sheltered by Bishops (if they were repentant priests ), and sent through a series of churches, raping children in every one, with the full knowledge of the Pope that this was policy. Jesus forgave their sin each time, making it OK to send them secretly to the next church. A tradition many centuries old. 
Born of war, these religions were. A way to make it intellectually exceptable to destroy the innocents in other lands.
In my country (USA), the Christians are at the vanguard of those who elected George the war monger. They are the first to cry "nuke the Iranians " !
I’m not an atheist. I don’t know there is no god. Just that all the people that really believe the christian, jewish, hindu, muslim, mormon, “the all mighty wrote our book”, crap, are stupid IMHO. Just plain can’t think away from the guiding crowd, plain stupid.
I’m not worried about offending anyone, the objects of my mental scorn won’t read this far into a thread that might hurt their head trying to understand.
It is a fact that the lower you go on the scale of mental power, low education, low income, smoking, wife beating, time spent in prison, and low IQ, the greater the percentage that believe in a holy book.
Non belief peaks with noble prize prize winners, followed by academy of science members, and the percent of “holy bookers” increases as education level declines. The "bible belt " states have lower income, higher teen pregnancy, fewer graduates, and vote for Bush because he doesn’t confuse them with big words. Karl Rove (key Bush adviser) figures out how to get the monkey elected. Rove is an atheist. Religious hacks get all the unimportant jobs, like FEMA head.
The only state that breaks the trend is Utah. Perhaps everything in the book of mormon is divine truth. Utah (a mormon majority state), bucks the trend by doing rather well by objective standards.
My theory is that the smart men married a dozen of the best woman each, and the dumb guys got lost and died walking across the desert to Utah. Or perhaps drinking really does wreck families and destroy brain cells. 
Despite the odd state, or creative christian, the general trend is clear. Even the religious agree with me on this one. Ask any holy book christian why a muslim believes in the Koran, they will tell you (on the side), it’s because those people are stupid. And of course, the hindu and muslim has an identical opinion that their favorite sacred book makes perfect sense, and that christians are blighted retards. So the vast majority of holy bookers actually agree with me.
All holy book people have the same philosophy. That only one book can be trusted, and you need someone to explain it to you every week. It is a very stupid idea, that at it’s core states that there is nothing to be gained by reading two books and comparing them yourself. That is why the stupid almost always believe that they were raised with the right book. It is to hard for them to think about it, so they don’t. Or can’t.
To bad I say. This old world has plenty of troubles that we won’t solve arguing theologies answers about how to move on to the next one.
