I agree and I don't. To a certain extent I believe we just know certain things that are right and wrong and others are learnt or fine tuned. Some children, for example, do not think there is anything wrong with hurting animals and need to be taught that this is not right - I guess some need more teaching than others, but I believe that your morals and values are in part what you believe from the beginning and the rest is given by parents, society and peers.
And yes.. the Devil tempts all us unbelievers...
