I think many people are getting confused here. Or possibly are just facetious. There are many words which are made opposite by adding the prefix a- but moral is not one of them. The opposite of moral is immoral. I know there are many sources which state the opposite of moral is amoral but they are mistaken.
Immoral is defined as:
violating moral principles; not conforming to the patterns of conduct usually accepted or established as consistent with principles of personal and social ethics
Whereas moral is defined as:
of, pertaining to, or concerned with the principles or rules of right conduct or the distinction between right and wrong; ethical
Amoral on the other hand is:
not involving questions of right or wrong; without moral quality; neither moral nor immoral.
As for the prefix A. It comes from Greek and not surprisingly means not. Here are some examples
apathy, atheist, atrophy, atypical

Moral....= amoral. "a" Is from Greek and is called the "negative Alpha." It reverses the meaning of the word it proceeds.
