Atheism, psychopathy and animal abuse
See also: Atheism, psychopathy and animal abuse and Atheism and psychopathy
A psychopath is someone with an anti-social personality disorder characterized by violent, perverted or immoral behavior often leading to criminality. Psychopaths have little or no concern for other people. Some psychopaths equate love with sexual arousal.[9]
A 2016 study relating to atheism and psychopathy published in Plus One indicates:
“ | Similarly, a survey of 312 college students examining the relationship between Religious/Spiritual Well-Being (RSWB) and ‘dark triad’ personality traits found that “RSWB was confirmed to be negatively correlated with these negative aspects of personality, in particular with subclinical psychopathy.”
...moral concern is associated with a spiritual worldview.[10] |
” |
According to the 2014 journal article Correlates of psychopathic personality traits in everyday life: results from a large community survey published in the journal Frontiers of Psychology lack of belief in God is positively associated with psychopathy.[11]

Animal abuse and psychopathy
Mark D. Griffiths Ph.D. wrote in Psychology Today:
“ | Studies carried out by Dr. Phillip Kavanagh and his colleagues have examined the relationship between the three Dark Triad personality traits and attitudes towards animal abuse and self-reported acts of animal cruelty. They found that the psychopathy trait is related to intentionally hurting or torturing animals, and was also a composite measure of all three Dark Triad traits.[12] | ” |
