Humans benefit when they have things bigger and better than themselves, that they can speak praise of, that inspires and motivates. Such things end up help curbing people from being self-absored and developing tunnel vision.
I would suggest the original poster stop positioning his personal beliefs in contrast with the Christian religion. The concepts of God are huge, and while the Christian God is major in the west, to keep referencing an anti-view of such, looks more like rebellion against a concept than a seeking of truth.
As far as Christian ethics go, I am curious who would speak against forgiveness, mercy and compassion, and love and charity. Would one prefer an Objectivist's view of things?
