Perhaps the truly disturbing thought isn't society's declining morality, but the notion that some people apparently require supernatural babysitting just to avoid being terrible human beings

Call it how you like, but atleast with religion, for the majority of faith, there is inherent good teachings instilled from family onto kids, morals that last a lifetime. Which schools don't do a great job of with the same effort.  Sure there are good atheist people, but I bet the majority doesn't put the same effort with a huge established system of support in the community to teach what is right, and through examples. 

I mean, depending on who's doing the teaching, a lot of these "good teachings" in religious societies include stuff like murdering gay people and rape victims, child marriage, genital mutilation, etc.
