Exploring Morality

I realize that this subject is one of contention but it must be dealt with. If Moral Law does not exist then everything I have written so far can be put into a shredder and forgotten. If Moral Law does in fact exist then Atheism in its nature cannot be correct and only a theistic view can be accurate in representation (for why I choose Christianity please wait until the end of May as I am still drafting that lengthy essay)
Now then what must be understood is that I am NOT saying Atheist's cant be moral, a great many Atheists can be more moral than some Christians. My point in this article is to point out the existence of a Moral Law through one question.
Why is it wrong to shoot the person next to you in the head if Morality is subjective and not absolute?
Without an absolute Moral Law I can freely and under no repercussions on a personal level kill anyone for any reason in any way I deem appropriate. Without an absolute Moral Law 9/11 was not wrong. Without an absolute Moral Law the Holocaust was just a disagreement in darwinian philosophy.
With an absolute Moral Law I will feel some sort of negative emotion as a result of wrong actions. An absolute Moral Law is what decides right and wrong, without it we exist in a world where everything is allowed and nothing is illegal on personal level, Where laws are illogical and are completely against reality.
