For example, in 2014, a University of Kentucky study was published by Will M. Gervais, which was entitled ''Everything Is Permitted? People Intuitively Judge Immorality as Representative of Atheists'', and the study indicated that "even atheist participants viewed immorality as significantly more representative of atheists than of other people."<ref>[''Everything Is Permitted?

[[Jesus Christ]] and the [[Old Testament]] prophets taught that human nature is evil.  Jesus said, "If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the [[Holy Spirit]] to those who ask Him?" (Luke 11: 13).  The prophet [[Jeremiah]] said, "The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?" (Jeremiah 17:9).

Human [[history]] with its many injustices and atrocities shows that the testimony of Jesus and the Old Testament prophets is true concerning the wickedness of mankind. In addition, when the Christian evangelist [[Ray Comfort]] asks atheists if they have ever lied, hated another person, stolen, lusted after the opposite sex and engaged in other immoralities, they invariably indicate they have done these things and still commit various acts of immorality.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2iYHEgrdD-Y Ray Comfort Debates an Atheist]</ref> If  person [[repentance|repents]] of their sins, accepts Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, God regenerates them and their enslavement to sin is broken (see: [http://creation.com/good-news Good news])<ref>[http://carm.org/questions/about-doctrine/if-we-accept-jesus-savior-can-we-then-sin-all-we-want If we accept Jesus as Savior, can we then sin all we want?] by [[CARM]]</ref>
