Jainism is a religion that came into being in Ancient India. They believe that the universe was never created and will not cease to exist. They do not believe in a god.
Jainsits believe in performing good works and are highly ethical. They are completely non-violent. They are so against violence that they will not kill insects or in some cases microscopic organisms. They have opened many animal rescue shelters in Indian and most are Vegans. They are horrified by the idea of killing a human being for any reason.
So, if these people are acting, in every sense of the word, highly moral lives and do not believe in a deity, then how can you say that your god is necessary for there to be morality in the world?
