As I also replied to 59Caddy in the NC thread:

I derive my morals from the simple principle that I treat others as I want to be treated myself. It's amazing how far that one principle will get you.

Would I want people to beat me, kill me, rob me, sell me, discriminate against me, etc?
No. So likewise, I don't do those things to other people. And I didn't need any deity to come to those beliefs. It is perfectly possible to live life by a strong moral compass without ever needing to resort to a deity.
