My perspective - truth or delusion?

My perspective is that we have a soul and we have the light of God as the foundation of that soul. It shines bright. The light of greatness, the light of beauty, is all pointing to absolute origin and basis.

The nobleness in goodness, shows a link to the divine. The authority of morality speaks of eternal basis.

My perspective is that this all spiritual knowledge. We are endowed with knowledge of God.

Now here is the question, if God exists and he is all these things, the source of morality, the eternal basis to it, the sun of the rays of greatness - this perspective would be based on reality right?

Now why wouldn't it be knowledge if he is all this? Why if a soul exists should we not believe in spiritual knowledge that the eyes of the soul can see.

Now suppose there is no God. What is the delusion? Where is it coming from? Why this false belief? Why does it seem morality needs an eternal basis? Why does it seem greatness points to eternal greatness? Why does it seem honor points to eternal honor?

Why is it being assumed that these things are eternal? They are all human constructs that (as far as I'm concerned) came from evolution.
