I like to think that morals are a seperate thing from religion as I see myself as a moral person and yet ascribe to no religion.
Mantus does raise an interesting argument about religion and society growing hand in hand... The only thing I would add to that (or clarify) is that the Judeo Christian religion did not spring from a vacuum. It evolved from a myriad of know and now forgotten traditions.
So it isn't God per se, that lays out morality rather it is humanity and their various traditions...
