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:
I like to see your source because it sounds like you pulled that straight out of your backside. Not even animals make a habit of killing thier own species for no reason.

What's an atheists metric for determining what qualifies as good?
