For those who aren’t familiar with the term, it means believing something that probably shouldn’t be believed, or being influenced to believe something that’s not necessarily in your best interests.

No, I’m claiming anyone who actually believes in God and His judgment (whatever denomination) will recognise their shortcomings as shortcomings and not make excuses for them, and that fundamental difference helps you avoid large transgressions. For example, if you think lusting over random women is sinful, you will avert your gaze and, even if you fail at doing it quickly enough at times, you certainly won’t be cheating (there are too many steps between lust and action, enough many moral “checkpoints” to turn your back from sin… and even if you fall, for whatever reason, you’d still not run away from the judgment and take responsibility for the fuck up). But it all starts by recognising that some things, in some contexts, are always, objectively “wrong”.
I disagree with the premise that you require a mystical beard in the sky judging everything to behave in a moral manner but you do you.
God already made us good natured, and you recognise that, I agree with you. But being rightly guided will help when the good vibes aren’t convincing enough.
