Serious answers only please...
Do you have a moral code? If so, where do you think it comes from? Look at all of the terrible things that people do. Look at some of the negative attitudes on this website.
If we all were created by some kind of large-scale cosmic accident, with no higher power, wouldn't our only instincts be things such as eat or be eaten? Just because we have bigger brains than the animals does not mean that we would automatically develop compassion for others and common decency.
I don't think that people, by themselves, would "evolve" into kinder people. If anything, they would become more and more agressive, dangerous, and self-centered. I'm not saying our world is perfect, but people have never cared about human rights as much as we do now.
Do you really think that we would have love, respect, decency, and justice without a God to teach it to us? I don't have enough faith in man for that.
