What is the point of morality if you're a theist?

[Esquilax]

And that's just one side of it. What is the morality of abrogating all moral decisions to a third party when you have the ability and intelligence to make your own moral decisions? Going with the flow - even when its against what you think of as moral (and that must have happened too many times to count throughout history) has got to be utterly morally reprehensible. Its laziness and cowardice all rolled into one.

At the very least, doing this would strip you of any kind of moral context; you can't have moral actions if your every move is dictated by something other than your own moral compass. You become divorced from morality, in that case. And I desperately hope that nobody operating under this "I do what god says," mentality ever develops a mental illness and starts hearing voices.

To be honest, I mostly posed this question as a way of demonstrating that the "why be good without god?" question is a pointless one, and I'm shocked that the one theist we've had with the wherewithal to respond did so to confirm the worst possible thought I'd had. I was really expecting some kind of agreement, but I guess that would be giving these guys too much credit.
