you do not have to be religious to be moral. saying that laws exist without morality is ridiculous.

While some laws could be construed as having a moral basis (theft, murder, etc.), it is also the desire of a society to exclude those behaviors in order to maintain the social fabric, regardless of morality. Most laws, have no moral basis, but are in place to regulate commerce and transportation.
