If you don't believe, where is your moral compass?

I patiently explained that all cultures have words for right and wrong. That we all know what's right and wrong without a list of only ten rules that Christians don't follow anyway. I don't agree with those ten rules necessarily anyway.. Do not lie...a mortal sin... Yet,
no rules on pedophilia, or corruption, or torture or many worthy sins.. Just be sure not to be envious of your neighbor's hot wife.
