And in that case, God is irrelevant. We already know how to be selfless etc.
Do you not agree that there is a subjective part to life?

Do you not agree that selfishness and greed and narcissistic behaviours are also natural occurrences? Is it not obvious that society in general seems to actually favor this greed through commercialiam?

Being aware of what is right in ones self in no way negates the need for oft reflection on what is right. Quite the contrary actually. Often recollection, study, reminder serves to keep the right thing close in heart, and as such; close at hand.

Peace

Faith in selfless Unity for Good.

You lost me here pops. Your reply doesn't seem to have much to do with what I said.

If you think "God" is responsible for everything, nothing is natural. It's all artificial, crafted how he wants it.
