I think the following argument has potential. I just thought of it today. So let's see how far it goes.
Morality is a code that we acknowledge. We all differ with morality, and hence it is relative. However for those who acknowledge it, they have to acknowledge some morality is superior to others which shows there is an objective morality and standard, even if majority if not all humans don't have it.
That said, if a soul exists and God exists, wouldn't it part of morality and goodness to be spiritual.
If that is the case, then morality encompasses spirituality. But how can spirituality be part of morality if there is no basis to it (ie. no God, no soul?).
It's somewhat of a fuzzy argument, but I hope people get what I'm trying to say.
Morality encompasses spirituality. Yet spirituality is suppose to be an delusion. If this is true, then some of morality would be a delusion. But if we acknowledge morality and acknowledge that it is good to spiritual if God exists, then this is highly problematic without acknowledging a basis to it which is God existing.
