So you are not proposing any specifically dictated moral order relative to a particular God? You simply think the notion of a God Authority encourages a "stronger" morality since it is liable to acknowledge both reverence and gratitude?

I wonder if there is not a downside to the self serving "morality" chosen by the adherents of any particular God authority: Mithra, Zeus, Chronos, Manitou, Thor, Allah...were they all morally impartial as regards notions of justice, or did they exhibit human flaws of moral partiality?

Will gratitude to Allah, Yahweh, and Satan bring us all to a "stronger" moral code? Is there a synergism involved here?
