Sure thing.

First of all, the Abrahamic religions did not invent morality.  That existed before the Abrahamic religions (unless you are a young earth creationist, in which case logic will be ineffective against you).  The Code of Hammurabi pre-dates the Ten Commandments, yet share many similar values.  Now you either have to accept the Babylonian Gods as real, or you have to assume that these people came up with a set of values without the involvement of a god.

Oh and Mankind decided to get rid of slavery, without the aid of a religious text (and in fact in spite of people using said religious text to promote slavery)

Now explain to me why the fuck I should follow a text that tells me I should be quiet because I'm a woman.  I'll be waiting.  I'm sure you'll ignore that as much as you can.  Maybe it's because I'm a woman, and I shouldn't be teaching man according to that book of yours.
