The prior has several parts. Would the null hypothesis be that people are moral because there are practical and emotional advantages? That the good effects of religion don't fade?

And just to go sideways a little, should "religion" be viewed as a single thing for this discussion, or do some religions or some approaches to religion have different moral effects?
