What rubbish is this so called God gene. Materialists are really scraping the bottom of the gene barrel! One might as well add that some are murderers, pedophiles, thieves, drug addicts etc because they have the respective genes. 

God in Christ has given us the ability to resist sin with the help of the Holy Spirit (Gal 5:17). One of the beautiful things things God has done has given us a hole in our spirits or, put differently, made us in His image (Gen 1:26) that can only be filled with His loving presence. Only then do we have true lasting peace and happiness. Unfortunately many try and fill this hole with material stuff which doesn't give any peace or happiness, only misery.
