Believing in God does not mean that a person will be good just because of the fear of what happens after. That being said, many people who believe in God will be good not just because there could be punishment for the wrongs which they do, but because they are good people who also happen to believe in God. On the other hand, this cannot be said for all those who believe in God.
Also, those who do not believe in God could be good people as well. It is all dependent on who the person is and how they are as a person. Hence, if they want to be good they will be good, if they want to be bad they will be bad.
Is it normal to want to be a good person without believing in God?
