Of course an atheist can have morals developed apart from any belief in the supernatural. Why is an appeal to a higher power necessary to develop morals? Now, one could disagree with the morals developed by said atheist—or is the question really “can they develop morals that are as good as those developed by the (fill in the blank) religion”?

What ever. Some here think that you can’t have any sort of valid morals unless they were developed or filter through a supernatural belief in a god.
