-Atheists can't justify morality
-Uncaused first cause problem
I'm only skimming the video but what's the third objection?
Something regarding free will?
The first two are relatively easy to answer. If you reject the bible as a source of reliable information, it doesn't matter if you can use it justify morality or not. Both the atheist and the theist have the same authority with regards to moral issues.
The uncaused first cause thing is a classic argument in favor of the existence of a God, but one counterargument is that even if one might exist on those grounds, there's absolutely nothing connecting it to the actual religion that you practice. As an atheist my main problems are with religion and faith in general, not the question of the possibility of the existence of [i]any[/i] God.

@DDonde This is a foundation video. It sets the foundation first... is there a God. What you are bringing up is a separate issue... Is the Bible reliable. The speaker did not pick the topics. He was answering the questions. But, if you accept the idea that there is a cause and the cause is God... then who He is and What is His nature is another topic and I believe Ravi Zaccharias is a good speaker on that issue.
But regarding authority, atheism and theism do not share the same authority regarding moral issues. Our authority is God's word which is rejected by the atheist.
