I don’t believe in a deity or deities
I find belief in a deity or deities to be an utter nonsense; and religion to be nothing more then a place for charlatans to con people out of their hard earned money by using fear tactics and brainwashing people to believe in nonsense.
Just because you believe in a deity or deities, doesn’t mean that you are more moral then me.
If you are moral only because of reward and the fear of punishment by a deity or deities; then you’re just a person who lacks empathy, not religion.
Morals have no deity or deities.
Morals have no religion.
No one, no religion and no philosophy has a monopoly on morals, right or wrong, just or unjust, bad or good.
It is better to be morally empathetic and an atheist, then to lack empathy and be a theist.

I like the way Matt Dialhunty explains it. He views theists as being less moral than secular humanists because their actions aren't based on a thought out decision. They are simply doing whatever their deity commands.
