Without God, Why is Murder Wrong?

If there is no God who says, “Do not murder,” there is no way of saying murder is objectively wrong. One can say, “I don’t like it,” or “I think it is wrong,” or “I feel that it is wrong,” or “My society says it is wrong,” but not “It is wrong.” For that, you need God.
