Quote:Dante would say that when you do something good, you are not acting independently of God, you are reflecting his nature and aiming toward him. Whether you know it or not.
All due respect to Signore Dante, but if God is the sum total of all goodness, then goodness exists independently of God. In other words, I can be good whether God exists or not. Furthermore, the Irish philosopher Boru maintains that it is impossible to know whether any particular act is good., so the whole thing is largely a wash.
