It does not take a god to instill a good sense of right and wrong. define "right" and "wrong". Apart from God these words have no meaning as your "right" could very well be my "wrong".
Atheism, if the atheists were being honest, always comes down to "might makes right"

And there would be no way to prove which of you was right.
I actually had someone yesterday who would rather say that he couldn’t judge between Mother Theresa and Adolph Hitler
than he would admit to the existance of absolute standards.
Rejection of absolute standards is easily shown to be either a falsehood or an absurdity.

Atheism, if the atheists were being honest, always comes down to "might makes right" And Religion is?
