What moral base to non-Christians or non religious people adhere to?

What if I told you, "The Judeo-Christian moral basis, to a very large degree?" Because that's what I would tell you. Is that somehow impossible to believe?

I grew up in "the church." My parents instilled good values in me. I respect the laws of the society I live in and if I decided that I no longer wanted to follow said laws, I'd be in trouble. From a self-preservation stand point, why would I want to do that? Being good to people simply feels good and I know it's the right thing to do. Would you concede this is possible?

You could say that I am the way I am due to my childhood with the church and my very religious parents. That would be fair... So I guess the test will be my children in 40 years. Stay tuned. : )
