Morality is not based on a series of religious instructions from books written thousands of years ago. Morality is more like a series of agreed-upon principles for communities to function optimally.

You can tie that up with your religion if you want, but it would be a category error to consider it necessary.

The fact that we ended slavery shows that our morals come from within us and not from God. In fact many religion endorse slavery. However we, the human race, collectively decided slavery is not moral and we ended it. No God needed. No religion needed.

Scientists Find Religion Triggers Same Area of Brain as Sex, Drugs and Love

By Paul Ratner

Religious and spiritual experiences have profound effects on many people around the world. A new study from a team of neuroscientists shows that what they feel is caused by activating the brain’s reward circuits that control our ability to feel pleasure. It’s the part of the brain associated with sex, drugs, music as well as love.

“We’re just beginning to understand how the brain participates in experiences that believers interpret as spiritual, divine or transcendent,” said Jeff Anderson, M.D., Ph.D. from the University of Utah School of Medicine, senior author of the study and neuroradiologist. ”In the last few years, brain imaging technologies have matured in ways that are letting us approach questions that have been around for millennia.“
