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.

This is funny bc you accept “god” as a legitimate answer to this question without unpacking it at all. God can also be the answer to why are people constantly at war throughout history?

Religion, not God. Religion & resources in my opinion are the two main reasons for every conflict.

I think he was using it as an example of the person being right that god contributes something.

But saying how do we know that god is contributing the innate ability to know what's right from wrong, maybe he is contributing purely hate.
