I'd say you just tied rationality to morals, not god.

No religious people chimed in in the religious forum.  If I'd known I'd only be talking with atheists, I'd have left the entire moral argument portion of the original post out of this.  That was in there, because I was interested in what religious people thought from their perspective. 

The question I'd have asked from the start if I'd known that would be: "From your perspective, do you find having neither objective or subjective morals to be a rational option?"  Preferably with an explanation of your reasoning tacked on to the answer.
