You do not get you morals from your faith in the ot, you may like to think so but you do not otherwise you would be stoning people left right and centre, what you do is pick and chose out of the bible what matches your own moral values and you ignore the rest

Certain morals are hardwired into our brains




No an atheist is someone who does not believe in a deity because there is no evidence , if you cn present proper evidence then do so


If you are the one that is proposing there is a deity then yes it is up to you

Pure luck



In what sense are you talking about ?? If your talking about the solar system as a hole then noting It is constantly expanding

With references to new and old testaments I think that is pretty obvious





Of course people have morals , but they to not get them from a deity



It is not up to us to prove a negative , if you wish to propose that a god exists then it is up to you to present your evidence for scrutiny
