lol theists are the ones that do this “God exists because my worldview would fall apart and I’d realize I wasted my life on a manipulative fairy tale”

Life would be easier if God didn't exist. I'd be able to follow my own hedonistic desires and do what I'd like. But I re examined my faith and realised that God indeed exists.

Sounds like you are one of the people that benefits from thinking a god is a real thing. Most of us don't need something like that to be nice people.

It's not about being nice people- it's about the fact we need a Saviour because we aren't nice people.
