The sins as described by Christianity did not shape our morality. Rather, our biological sense of what is and isn't beneficial shaped a sense of right and wrong for many situations, and religion documented it.
For example, a normal person has adverse feelings regarding punching a baby, or stealing from another, or seeing a homeless person suffer. This is because none of these are advantageous to humanity as a species, and we've evolved to accentuate this.
I have a very firm set of morals that did not come from the Bible. All the commandments can be explained as either reflections of biological morality or that religion's self-preservation.
