Individuals characters, whether a theist or not, are influenced in the same way. Violent
behavior can be observed everywhere. Humans have an instinct to please others and
themselves. Behavior can be influenced easily by the behavior of others. Assimilation is

judgment decides whether to perform the action or not. The actions of an atheist and a
theist are guided and sometimes influenced by common beliefs and sometimes by
consequences certain actions bring.
