Biology, The law, interaction with peers, friends and indeed enemies. These inform everyone's morality, theist or atheist. The only difference is that theists mistake the general interactions with said society as a message from their God.

It's also why it's impossible for them to reconcile their biblical/holy book codes with contemporary society, as judged by our standards societies past were a lot less 'moral'. They're trying to reconcile, for example, living in a society where rape and murder are inherently wrong (as judged by the vast majority) with a book that has several references to rape and murder condoned by the guy who the book is supposedly dedicated to.

Indeed you outright can't reconcile them unless you reject one or take on a load of cognitive dissonance.
