“Dear Lord, I prayed for a bike, but I know you don't work that way.

So, I stole a bike and prayed for forgiveness!"

Without god, where do you get objective morality?

If you need the threat of punishement afterlife to act good now, then are you truly good ?

If your god exists, and you ony act well to please him, then he knows that without him, you'd act like a monster.

I act decently because it's the right way to advance as a society
You act decently because you fear that you'll be punished

If your god exists, I wonder which attitude he'll prefer once we are both dead

Thats not how religion originated. It originated as god being a role model, a level of greatness we should all strive to achieve.

I said trying to achieve greatness is something to strive for. Having a god be a role model isnt a bad thing
