Wouldn't the existence or non-existence of a deity lend itself more to observable fact while right and wrong will seemingly always inhabit the realm of opinion?

And would not a deity simply be yet one more level of entity that ITSELF could either be right or wrong?

Isn't absolute morality itself relative, if two cultures have completely antithetical beliefs and both insist their beliefs are absolute and everyone else is wrong? Isn't "absolute" more a factor of how many people agree? If not, and assuming deities would only be another level of entity or existence, then what additional "thing" (for lack of a better word) would be the arbiter of absoluteness of right and wrong?

(This is for theists and atheists alike, so both of you, please think outside the box for a moment. I hate to qualify this, but if you respond with something like "the Bible says" you aren't answering any question, you're evading it.)

What do you think?

Why? Who? Whom? Which? Whose? What? When? Where?
If your answer is: "yes" = x points and it is: "no" = X points. It's very wonderful. "If you pay not a servant his wages he will pay himself." Congratulation for your new points.
