Without reason morality is just how you feel what is right at any moment, not what is actually right.
There is a theist here (not acrobat, he is relatively a good theist) that made a thread on "spare the rod, spoil the child" as good moral grounds. Im on mobile its a PITA to search for. He tripled and quadruple down that spanking a child is the best way.
When you hinge your morality in gods, when gods are as many or more than there are believers, it is not good grounds to establish justice.
God is just a super ego. In hindsight always right, more perfect than the believer. An artifact in mankind's mentality.
