I don't know what this wager is lol. But the OP asked for a moral claim a theist can make that an atheist cannot make.
No! I asked for a moral action or statement that a theist can perform or state that an atheist can not.
The claim to moral objectivity is not a moral statement.

A moral claim would be "Rape is immoral". Objectivity has nothing to do with it. Although, I sense that a rape victim has a better claim to objectivity than I.
