how come there aren't more killings in the name of "no god"?

Question

maybe it's just me, but if i was so arrogantly against the idea of a "greater power" &/or "life after this", i'd be a more violent person... to say the least.
yet history is a complete flip of that! even before Christianity came around, people were killing other people (usually to take something of theirs, such as land) & blaming it on some "Divine ordnance". basically saying "my god(s) told me to kill you & steal your land, & nothings going to change my mind".
but, on the reverse of that, many people have been kind & peaceful because who who/what the worshiped.
so what i'm trying to say is this
if there is no fear of repercussion of ones actions after death, as opposed to the possibility of facing up to your actions after you die, what's really stopping you?
& don't say "laws of the land" or what not, don't even say "common sense", because these factors seem void to one who's "killing in the name of".

Answer 1

Maybe if you added up all the mindless murders that occur in robberies, fights, domestic abuse, miscellaneous violence - it would equal "killing in the name of God". This doesn't really cover your question (questions). I'll try to add more later....

Answer 2

Gangbangers of any race or ethnicity are pretty godless. They kill for things like somebody looking at them funny, they kill people for wearing the wrong colors in "their" neighborhoods, they kill for drugs, they kill for sex.

So they kill in the "name of no god" all the time.
