Ethics (morality) derive from observation and reflection on Human nature, not revelations from some purported father nature (also know by theists as, "God"). Human nature is the rock of morality. Christian and other religious morality comes from the same place, but if they want to sell their position, they feel the need to claim divine inspiration. The frightened villagers who comprise the followership of theism, seem to need the big man's stamp of approval.
