Not doing something because it would impact negatively on others seems, to me, to be more moral than not doing something to avoid punishment.

I totally agree and i don't think there are many who would even attempt to dispute that metric.

@Pikachu And not forgetting that non-christian belief systems still have moral guidelines, some of which place a different value on behaviours. For example, the Buddhist precepts put harm against living things as the first of their precepts. Obviously, being a non-theist religion, they don't have to worry about a supreme being getting all put out if someone should question it.
