Reality is the part that doesn't go away when you stop believing in it.
Now belief and its consequences are real, so I see where you're going with the question. It's the belief that's real, not the object believed in.
Does that mean that morality has no intrinsic value? If it's only belief in something being immoral that makes it immoral how can we use morality to justify our decisions?
If everyone decides its morally acceptable to kill whoever they want does that make murder no longer immoral? And if so does belief that God doesn't exist make God no longer exist?
