from an atheistic point of view, what is the point of having morals, besides ego stroking?

[Deleted member 4612]

if god doesn't exist, no eternal punishment

so why have morals? and "feeling like a good person" doesn't apply

Because in times past it would signal to women that you are less promiscuous and more likely to invest resources into them and their offspring

 

[Deleted member 10413]

Because society couldn't function without them

 

[Deleted member 5969]

More respect from men, which can get you status

From a primitive standpoint makes u accepted into the community and allows u to reap benefits of being in said community. If caveman goes around killing people he gets exiled and has to fend for himself all alone, if he gives up the freedom of killing and doing bad, he gets accepted into caveman group and living becomes easier as he doesn’t have to do all the hunting/fishing/defending himself.

Everybody have some morals
If a man has zero morals he's literally dark triad

Main différence between men and women
Women have no moral or honor

Morality and Virtue is a Masculine trait

Morals from an atheistic standpoint is completely self serving anything more is moral fagging.
For example no murdering other people because that would open up to you being murdered and so in a self perseveration standpoint it makes sense to outlaw it.
Everything else is mental masturbation tbh
