Oh my god. You guys are right, I am just talking about man. Freewill, what a beautiful concept.

So, wait, here's where I get confused, if it's all my choice to make, and I alone am responsible for the consequences of my own actions, where does god fit in? Isn't belief in god completely extraneous? Like an appendix, something that we've totally evolved beyond now?

Or will believing in God grant me some special power? Can I call down lightning on the unbelievers or unleash plagues?

You're saying that a belief in god yields precisely the same outlook as an atheistic humanitarian ethos, when properly applied... So why bother?
