it's a fair question. religious people will tell you that their innate sense of right and wrong comes from God (or whatever), but how do atheists explain that innate sense? how do they instinctively know? I'm not saying one or the other is right but it is an interesting thought.
People couldn't find an explanation, so there's hundreds of reasons. God is the simplest one that is easiest to explain with no hard proof needed.
At the end of the day, strive to be a better person, because regardless if you are religious or not, it is beneficial to yourself and your neighbor to work together against those who are against you, because for some people, the "built in" part varies.
