Human beings have virtually no value if they are just machines

And the fantasy conception is yours. Not originally, but it seems you sure bought into it.

Yes, I used those words, like "reward" etc, but not exclusively for me, not as you said - as if I am privileged above others, which is certainly not written in my post.

And yes, the term "Source" with a capital letter, refers to God.

Problem is as with even Muslims and Jews is that this "source" is assumed not universal independently proven fact. 

Just like you don't blindly buy claims of Visnhu or Apollo.

My question to ALL humans of EVERY RELIGION, is why, does anyone feel the need to claim authority based on religion? 

I already answered it, but the REAL reason like I mentioned before, is that EVERY religion claims they are the "source" of our species morality.

I'd say that our source is our EVOLUTION.

It is same reason a dog will protect their owner. It is the same reason my cat will seek my comfort as well as I seeking his.

EVOLUTION not superstition, not old mythology, not religion. EVOLUTION is your source.
