One difference between the religious and atheists is that immoral Christians would be hypocrites, but might have consciences. Immoral atheists would not be hypocrites, but might not have consciences.
Immoral people who believe they are christians may be the worst in terms of consciences, they have none, they lose no sleep about anything they have decided they want to do that serves their purposes. Greed, fraud, immoral decisions are all an indicator that conscience is not an inhibitor. Conscience keeps people on the right track.
