So, if you didn’t believe in a god, you would start treating people with different races, genders, and different sexual orientations with unfairness?
And we weren’t ‘created’ equal. Should all genders, races, sexual orientations, etc. get treated equally under the law? Yes.
But, please explain how everyone is equal. There are many people that are born with a mental handicap and will never be able to be a scientist. There are many people that are born, that will never be able to walk. They won’t be able to compete in a World’s Strongest Man Competition or be able to run a marathon. We weren’t ‘created’ equal.
And if the idea of an invisible man that is watching your every action is the only thing that prevents you from treating people of different ethnicities or genders differently, then you are an immoral person.

Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.' -Isaac Asimov-
