Morality came into existence quite easily.
Shall we begin there?
Morality came into existence when primitive people with low birth rates realized that it would do no good to kill someone in their own clan for any reason.
They realized that for survival, everyone was needed.
The one concept that reasonably explains morality better than anything else is the following:
A religious individual needs a belief in god to do good whereas an atheist does good because it is the right thing to do, no god needed.
