Maybe so but I'm nothing if not overly dramatic most of the time. The reason I go all hystrionic and raving about it is, because sometimes I feel like the only way people hear you or even pay attention is if you go ballistic and overstate things.

We do create our own morality, and as we learned in philosophy classes, morality is an individual (not social) construct.

I totally agree with your conclusion that we do not need a "god" to align our will to, as humans we've accomplished unbelievable miraculous things on our own. Some may say that's because of divine design, but I say it's because we're just that intelligent. Not so intelligent as a god, maybe - but we should trust in ourselves and absolutely be good to ourselves (forgive ourselves as you say).
