I think you should run with the first also. And maybe apologize for the fact that you've got plans after work all week, and if only you'd known, yadda yadda Eat It.

Everyone in the world bases moral judgments on beliefs about the supernatural (because beliefs about the supernatural include those who believe nature is the only reality--that is, that there is no supernatural).
