Because no one has shown how you got to that conclusion. You have tried to explain it to us for days, yet not a single person has been convinced.
So either your point utterly fails or you really suck at explaining it.
How does that follow? What you're now saying is that either I have explained it badly, or I have explained it well and it fails.
But you admit that you don't understand how I have reached my conclusion. So if I have not explained it badly (one of the options you allow) how would it follow that my point fails? For if I have not explained it badly and you still don't understand how I reached it, then how can you be sure my point fails? Surely all you can be sure about is that you are not very good at understanding things!
The evidence that you are not very good at understanding things is growing with every post you make.

Morality does exist but does not require a god despite what you think.
Oh, okay then - thanks for that.
