We treat our children in a moral manner not because of religion but because of basic instincts. Basic instincts guide morality much, much, much more than religion.
I love the dreamy world you live in. No children being born into slavery or war. Loving kind parents. A hug and kiss before being tucked into bed. However, for other less fortunate humans they can't just rely on the "basic instincts" of the people around them, religion or not.
Here is what you're actually saying: people NATURALLY, WITHOUT ANY PROVOCATION OR PRIOR LEARNING, will ascribe to your way of dividing up the world (good/bad aka morals)? Thats just retarded and antithetical to what science has taught us about nature/nurture.
