We already select our values. Just read the bible and you can find any set of values you choose. From "slavery is OK" to "love thy neighbor", anything you choose is there. Without a deity, we still have the spectrum of values to choose from. We just don't have the pretense of somehow being "special in god's eyes", nor that it was "god's will", nor the tyranny of "god told me what he wants...listen to me".
Secular humanism seems to work pretty well. The best xians practice it, even if they try to justify it with a "god".
