Take that back, if the OP was being sarcastic.
One does not rule out the other.

Perhaps. Now, is there any evidence? Any way to determine if it's true at all? Any way to falsify it?

The credo of most secular humanists is "Do unto others, and don't be a d.ick."

I'm sorry you need the threat of hellfire in order to behave yourself.

I don't think of hell fire.. that was always there.. it is the kingdom of God that is the message of Jesus. And Jesus did speak of hell. It was created for Satan and his angels. Many will follow satan into hell which Jesus is the alternative. Here on earth many destroy themselves with drugs and wrong decisions.
