First... you're in a debate class, right?

I'm willing to bet your professor was trying to provoke debate.

I'm guessing that he would be taking the position that without a concept of reward or punishment in the afterlife, people would have no motivation to act ethically or morally.

The correct counter to this is ethics and morals are relative, and that everyone acts ethically or morally.
