You and fellow believers, going back thousands of years, have utterly failed to establish that any such thing as divine law exists. I don't believe it does.
Therefore, I have never sinned -- not once, not ever -- and neither have you or anyone else.
On the other hand, people may commit crimes, misdemeanors, slights, and other bad acts. Ethical people make up for their bad acts on their own -- no imaginary deities needed; when possible, they make amends or reparation directly to the people affected by their bad acts. IMO, Christians who practice only substitutional atonement are NOT moral.
Where did you get that definition of sin? If you don't believe in a God, then how can you define morality? Who defines what is right or wrong?
Unmovable powers certainly do not get to define what morality is. In evolutionary reality we seek cooperation and consent, something your head character you falsely believe to be real, doesn't need. In reality we call such rulers who don't need our input "dictators". Congratulations, you worship a dictator.
