What makes you think you won't burn in hell? 
I've said that murders and robbers number would rise and, due the feel of unpunishment, people (honest) would feel abused and abandoned, 'vigilantes' and militias would be the new concept of justice (for some).
Actually we wouldn't, if humans were prone to such behaviour by our nature, we would have been extinct ages ago. Although some generations have known some excuses for murder (war/religion), in al cases where nearly all of the young male population was eradicated through war, it has always taken years to overcome this issues. This comes to show that if all humans were like that by themselves, without being triggered into it by a leader figure, humans would be long extinct before the first year of our calendar.

It is true that a leader figure reduces the chaos and that humans these days have become opportunists that are ruthless without something that controls their lives. You know why part of that is? Because for 1000 years (although before that too) humans, who are prone to look for a leader, have been indoctrinated by religions. Religions trying to control their lives and be that leader. Once having a grip, othe humans followed, as humans are flock animals in that sense, like sheep. The smarter (noticing the difference between intellect and smarts) of the bunch can partly break loose although even in those people you can see the rudiments of their original religion, regardless whether they are indifferent or loathing towards their former religion. Alot of people have to strong a 'social' need and religion has ever filled this for them so they cannot let it go regardless of anything else. (happens alot in the States)

People having a harder time with selfconsciousness and love or compassion of one's fellow man, other than what they are forced upon to do by a church, will see their world crash down once the religion seems false, or perhaps they never really believed and something snapped. These are the people who will cause the chaos.

Like I said humans are also sheep. There is two sides of the coin, order incites order, chaos incites chaos. If the chaotic people I mentioned go rogue, others will follow regardless of their own true feelings. Religion can be seen as a thing that created some sort of (perhaps/probably false) order, however it has also at the same time created the radical opposite of hate and chaos. Remove the religion and there may be a bit of chaos to manage at first, but the extremes will die down in time.

Well alot can be said about it, but I am certain it will take decades if not centuries, before humans can go back to just looking up at their leaders and take religious traditions as an extra. (provided all come to an agreement about the role of religion in our lives) We will always have criminals, but the extremes will be much lesser. (until the next religious-type hype comes to us)
