To: Right Brother

Society, upbringing, “the right thing to do”, love, patriotism, a sense of what is right, do unto to others, etc. fair play, decency. Making others happy, helping others, caring for both family and their fellow man, volunteering, abiding by the law such as not stealing or cheating or lying, serving their country; I could go on all day. No deity needed.

Your examples only further begs the question. From what does the sense or compelling desire for 'love', 'caring', 'decency', 'fair play', 'helping others' emanate?
