Short easy answer = Because I feel empathy.
I don't need a God to tell me that something is wrong because I can work it out for myself using my brain. e.g. I would miss my family if somebody murdered them so I know somebody else would be sad if I commited murder.
That of course extends and answers every other moral question.
It doesn't though. Lots of people have felt empathy for some and still done terrible things to others.
Those people were wrong.
Why do you think you have the authority to say that?
