Scientists have observed apes demonstrating sympathy and sharing in the wild. That sounds like moral behavior to me. These "lowly animals" share and help one another because it is natural for them to do so, because they have learned to do so, and because it helps the group to survive. It is unlikely that chimpanzees exhibit what appears to be moral behavior because they believe in an ape god. If they can do it, we can do it. In fact, humans behave morally without gods every day all around the world.
