I don't think morality is unknowable and unattainable without God. I believe that morals and ethics came before - If I live in a community where I make tools and my neighbor grows wheat, I know that by killing my neighbor I can't barter for wheat any longer, for example. I think that morals and ethics, in their basic principles, are based in selfishness/survival in communities. I think religion drastically helped spread the basics of morals, however I don't believe religion is the basis.

I don't believe religion is the basis, either.

Quite the opposite, I think religion is a bane to morality much of the time.

I believe that Jesus is the basis to morality. Pure and simple.
