Atheism: Good and Evil

I'm a christian and i'm new to this site.
I've always wondered how atheists deal with the existence of morality.
If there is no God, why have humans as far back as we can record deal in terms of morality?
I'm not arguing for a moral standard that is put forward by a God, i'm pointing out that for some reason morality has always existed regardless of how the standard has changed over time and distance.
I would really appreciate if someone could help me understand an atheist's point of view on this issue.
