Liking/disliking something has nothing to do with it being right/wrong.

Yes it does, because at the end of the day it is just my subjective opinion.

Subjective means preference, desire, taste...Not right or wrong.

What part is god supposed to play in morality other than the idea making otherwise good people evil.

??????

Without the idea of god there would be two more landmarks in New York. There'd be fewer wars and less division across the world and Turkey would not be leaving the twenty first century to head back to the 14th.
.
Religion does affect morality, but not in the direction you think.

Dont let facts get in the way of a cool story.
