Where do you read such thing?
You couldn't be farther from the truth. I live with guilt for things I do quite a bit, whether it be on how I handle discipline with my children or argueing with my wife over something stupid. By saying that I live w/o guilt disproves your own posting earlier as guilt "...keeps them servile and controllable."
Let's put the things at the right place.

1- First, you interpreted the articule posted by me as: "religious people feel guilt, but not atheists"
This is incorrect, human psyche is common to religious and atheists, so both can feel guilt. (it depends of the particular neurosis of each person).

2- I think you interpreted the sentence "Not me, but you" as I was implying (in a tacit way) the idea of atheists people does not feel guilt; and you remarked it literally.
Again, this is incorrect, probably the sentence "Not me, but you" can be interpretated in that way; but the meaning that I wanted to express was:
"I did not say that, you are mistakenly saying it".
Well, it is just a semantic misunderstood, I think.

3- The sentence quoted by you "...keeps them servile and controllable." refers to a church context; I mean, relation among the pastor or minister with the followers.
And it has nothing to do with your family life.
