Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Chicago loves carrots. Not as much as some coastal cities, but still.
Someone asked me to set up a meeting for them. Now they've declined the invite and said they'll forward me materials.
Hello! Not my meeting! Not my specialty, nor my purview.

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)
There are two ridiculous generalizations in this statement. One, that all atheists base their moral judgments on their belief that there is no God. Two, that all theists base their moral judgments on their belief that there is.

What is even happening?
Dunno if I like the logic here. You could also say:
Everyone in the world bases moral judgments on beliefs about the FSM (because beliefs about the FSM include those who believe nature is the only reality--that is, that there is no FSM)
Describe to me how a person's world view does not affect his moral judgments. It's impossible.
Theocracy just seems like a bad idea in general.

Then either I did a bad job explaining myself or you're reading way more into it than I meant to convey. Your world view is going to affect your moral judgments, is what I was trying to get at.

Describe to me how "world view" = "belief/lack of belief in God"
