If there is a creator, so what?

[Edwardo Piet]

1) God = goodness itself. A thing's goodness is a limited participation in goodness-itself (the limits determining what-sort-of-thing it is). A thing's limited participation in goodness-itself subsists as a thing distinct from the goodness in which it participates.

So,

A thing has limited participation in God. That limited participation subsists as something distinct from God in which it participates?

So are you saying that good things have limited participation within God, and they are themselves distinct from God, despite participating within him?

2) If by creator you mean the primary source or cause of everything else's being, then sure, that goes along with god as subsistent-being (and therefore the primary source of all participated (i.e. created) being).

What is God's subsistent-being?

How could I come to know God in order to care about God? (As far as I am concerned, I'd care about God if I knew of God because I'd care about knowing the truth of God... but "knowing the truth of God" is just a longer way of saying "knowing God", really. Caring about the truth of something and caring about something is the same thing, as far as I am concerned. To care that something is true is just to care that something is. "It is true that I am happy" is just a long way to say "I am happy". "True" and "false" have no meanings by themselves).
