   Hi.  Im afraid there is no compelling evidence whatsoever for our   
   inherent moral oughtness and other examples of personality (such as   
   reason, rationalizing, intuition, abstract thinking,  emotions, etc..)   
   ultimately coming from NON personal Materials such as hydrogen   
   gas/dirt/rocks/ et al.   It is not only impossible but is also quite   
   ludicrous to believe in such....unless you wish to pretend as many did   
   during the 'Pet Rock' phenominon of the early 1970's   :)   
      
   Lastly,  the fact that every human being has within him/herself a   
   definitive inherent sense of absolute moral laws (which they daily   
   demonstrate) , is strong evidence for a Personal Moral Law Provider   
   which can only be a personal Creator in whos image we were fashioned ;   
   and not from non-personal Materials or the infamous non-personal Pond   
   Scum Protozoa.   
      
   Regards.   
      
      
   Quote from Sir Arthur Keith, a noted anthropologist and devout Darwinian

   because the only alternative is special creation, and that is   
   unthinkable"
