My personal belief is increased with the pantheist notion that everything is made up of God who is the ultimate value or the comprehensive station of value, the all-value, but I don't see why Atheists can't believe in value of humans. If you believe you should value yourself, you should value human beings as well. Although I don't think value of living beings can exist without supernatural as a basis, I don't see why Atheists who believe value of themselves can exist without God don't need to believe in the value of others.
Is the "all-value" conferred by you or is it instrinsic to the "supernatural" in a mysterious manner that common sense just doesn't allow us to meaningfully define?

Explain what you mean by "conferred by you".
