They do have a natural capacity to know right from wrong. I do agree with you there, but without the proper moral upbringing and guidance, they lose it very quick. Especially when sexual immorality is involved. 

Morality is difficult. It takes men with IQs of about 180 to come to the very basics. And someone like you, creating a system of morality, is dangerous, because you're just not going to get even ninety percent of it right. You need moral teaching. 

Yes people are born knowing right from wrong--I won't dispute you there, because the Bible teaches that--but you do divert off of that ethics very quick, and very young. And that's why you need the Bible to remind you what that ethic is. 

And the ethics of the Bible isn't because "It will please God," What will please God is human happiness and flourishing, and peace. Which you can't have if you deviate off of the Bible's standard. Any diversion from that standard, and you don't have peace anymore, you have corruption, violence and lawlessness. 

And the fact is I don't doubt you do good. But, you have no capacity to understand good, or do good, without God's agency. You don't realize how many people I meet that struggle to even know what Good is. They deny it even exists, and while you believe in Good--that's a good thing--it's ultimately up to God to establish the good, and make it so. Otherwise it's just human opinion, and strife, and war between conflicting power dynamics that determines it.
