Knowledge: Atheists can be moral, so not dependent Motivation: Many moral without afterlife beliefs Summary Arguments unsuccessful in making morality fully dependent Religion can support moral principles like justice and care Evidence is mixed on whether religious belief enhances morality In summary, claims that morality inherently requires religion face challenges. Whilereligion supports moral principles, ethics may not fully depend on religious belief.Evidence is inconclusive on whether religion enhances moral behavior. Document Outline
