Religion might be right and you end up in the bad place

With modern life being as it is, we would be screwed either way in most religions. Everyone is probably breaking at least a couple of dozen rules in every religion.

Even if you just need to follow a central "be kind"-rule - how kind is it to buy stuff on Amazon, packed and delivered by wage slaves, which was imported from China (which may include child or slave labour) [or some US states for that matter] while also hurting the environment in the process.

There is no ethical consumption under capitalism. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
