Honestly, when are your lot going to come up with an original question? This question has been answered about 10 000 times just on this forum. A quick perusal of atheist literature would have provided you with our position on morality and moral authority.

If it has been answered so many times I would think that the simple question would have a well rehearsed and simple answer.

As for my 'lot', generalizations are generally useless in serious conversation. I do not consider this conversation "us vs. them" but "you and I".
