-and it doesn't matter whether or not it was good..since atheists are free to believe the same. That value isn't something we simply make up, or that the brain assigns and maintains.
The entire position of moral realism asserts precisely this, and doesn't depend on a god.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I don't see how from an Atheistic standpoint, that value can exist then. When you can prove it to be possible, let me know. Telling me about how you guys are empathetic and value humans without belief in God doesn't solve it.

Much of the population of the world is too fucking stupid. That's why religion has such a stranglehold.

Didn't have a much of a debate there though, I don't believe, was busy at that time.
You're busy enough now though, 100 posts in ~two days, mostly shite. You have this forum swamped with your drivel and for the life of me I can't fathom why you attract so much attention.
It's amazing 'science' always seems to 'find' whatever it is funded for, and never the oppsite. Drich.

You honestly can’t think of one reason why humans would value human life without a god? What is wrong with you?
