I often say if I didn't have morals/ethics I just would have been a televangelist or started an off-shoot cult and made my millions by now.
Still thinking abut it actually....
It seems that you're alluding to the theory that "One cannot/can be moral without God" that both atheists and believers argue about. I'd like to say that even though someone may be doing something immoral does not mean that they are void of any morality. It bugs me that people talk about morality in absolutes as if to say you are either moral or immoral and there is no in-between. Well truth is no one is completely moral or immoral. Morality to me is not a permanent attribute that one has, but is instead something that is applied situationally. People like to act like they are infinitely moral because they believe/don't believe in God but this is simply not the case.
