The musings from my noggin, as a commie, you are atheist are you not? Or are you just a socialist, I can't quite remember.

it does because without god objective morality cannot exist

laws

An as an atheist what would your thoughts be if tomorrow, Gods existence was proven to an absolute, irrefutable scientific fact and only that, nothing changes, e are still in the dark not knowing intention or lack of...and somehow you were the only one outside of academia told and shown proof, would you still believe a lack of God? Would you wish God had created an afterlife? Would you change anything about your character? Would you feel disturbed or relieved or horrified? I'm curious here, please share.

it does because without god objective morality cannot exist

Morality exists in every species. It plays a big part in our survival and at that point it is considered objective. Male lions may kill the babies of another male lion and then mate with the mother. Doesn't mean this is the case with every animal species. Some animals are more or less agressive than others. Even among very closely related animal species there may be a huge difference in morality and their culture. Morality is also relative and is still changing in humans and differs between different human populations. During the roman civilization, men having sex with men was normal. Then it became a sin, now it is accepted again. 

If we base our morality on the bible or other ancient books, most people would probably be stoned to death. Non-believers would be beheaded. Women who tell a man what to do would be slapped. Gays, transgenders and jews would be killed.
