Morality can exist without free will...it's just not a flattering thought to think that it might.
Religion teaches us that there is not merely an external source for morality, but that it is absolute and objective, despite apparently coming from the mind of a being--a god, a deity--thus making it subjective by definiton.
By contrast, a materialist view of the universe has morality as a source of survival, a check on behavior which could hamper productivity, reproduction, etc. 

Which is true...? For which is there more evidence than a mere book written millennia ago by people who are, according to today's standards, woefully ignorant?

Just asking.
