One person say rape is bad, the rapists says other wise. So how you solve this problem?

---

if it is up to us to decide what is right and wrong, then who is right...?

​

There just is no way to check to see who's standard is right and who's wrong.

That is what democratic consensus is all about. We discuss these issues, and then set up our society to reflect what we as a society believes. If you disagree with the consensus, then you roll up your sleeves and continue to push for your beliefs. How is this different between an atheist and a Christian?-

well install a government that enforces a certain standard that most people agree with.

Exactly. It works the same for atheists as it does for Christians.

Kings were put to death long before 21 January 1793. But regicides of earlier times and their followers were interested in attacking the person, not the principle, of the king. They wanted another king, and that was all. It never occurred to them that the throne could remain empty forever. -- Albert Camus

math... did we create math, or was math already created for us to observe?

This is a pretty controversial question in the philosophy of mathematics. In my professional opinion (college mathematics instructor; quit school just shy of the PhD), mathematics is invented.Other people insist it's discovered.
