Not true if you don't have a religion you don't believe that is another life after death what will  not let you doing bad thing like killing man stealing  or rape a woman?

Who understand his religion will never do bad things to people.

just because you established your morals from your religous experience doesn't mean that is the only place in which morals can be developed.  I'm athiest and I have a stricker set of morals then most anyone.  i would never kill, rape, steal and it has nothing to do with fear of god ... if anything the lack of belief in an afterlife is why i have such a high value for life for myself and everyone else.

 

Exactly. Unless you're a nihilist or social darwinist, atheism should lead to a higher respect for your fellow people in the human sphere, because if this life is all we've got, then taking it away should be bad, certainly less so than killing someone who will go on to be duly judged and get what they truly deserve.
