The answer is that morality exists independently of God. Murder for example, is immoral in and of itself. God does not need to exist for Murder to be immoral.
Furthermore, a person may choose to be moral without faith in God. Morality and a moral life has value in and of itself, independent of the existence of God.
In other words, Christians specifically and Religious humans in general, do not have an exclusive on moral behavior. In fact, history be known, Christianity and Religion in general is responsible for the majority of immoral acts throughout history.

God doesn't really have to have anything to do with morals. People who don't believe in God may STILL not do those things because it doesn't make them feel good as a person. Just becuse you don't believe in God doesn't mean you have to be a whore. You don't become a whore because you respect your body and you don't desire to have sex with men for money. God has nothing to do with that decision. You do it for yourself (if you don't believe in God).

because I don;t get my morals from a magic book, and a magic man in the sky. You are very immature to think that just because a person does not believe in your god, that means that they have no morals, or concepts of right and wrong. We think for ourselves and make desicions based on what we percieve to be morally right. I don;t need god to tell me that killing another human being is wrong, to know that it is wrong. Anybody that does need to be told that by someone else, not to mention a someone else that doesn;t even exist is a sorry excuse for a human being in my opinion.
