Indeed.
Only silly theists think reasoning is a by-product of god. The irony is that the god of the bible is quite irrational.
And that is due to the fact that primitive man created god.
Maelstrom,
Do you think humans have existed eternally ? Do you think cells caused the human mind to exist and that the cells are the ones deserving the praise for logical reasoning to exist and not humans because they didn't create themselves ?
Have you ever looked in the Clementine Homilies at Chapter XX - Some Parts of the Old Testament Written to Try us ?
I may go for a rest soon, so we may discuss later.

There's that.
Thumpalumpacus,
I plan to be kind to people even when they don't treasure what I say, I don't seek praise for what I say.

Goodwill is something you can choose, and it's about actions. Love is an emotion. At least, that's how I use the words.
Your questions make more sense now I know you use them to mean the same thing. I'm not exactly sure where you were going with them though.
robvalue,
It may be thought that I didn't say goodwill and love have the same meaning. We may agree that people may have goodwill, thinking rationally, towards someone and cause that someone to be pleased, experiencing love.
