I do go out and try to convince muggers and rapists and murderers of that.

Congrats, do the ones who flip you off and tell you go to go [deleted] yourself invalidate your morality? If they do not, nor do they invalidate mine.

We have been talking about a rational basis for altruism. With God it is rational. Without God it is not; it is solely a cost benefit analysis.

That's what I've been talking about, I'm not sure what you've been talking about. You haven't been able to show my basis for morality is irrational. I suppose if you could convince me that I'm the best human by non-subjective standard I might be convinced, and then take over the world. :-D

You will need to read the Bible in full and with understanding before making that judgment with confidence.

Been there, done that, spent twenty years on it, got the Bible minor.
