They may manage an "ebb and flow", as I mentioned, but I believe that is the best they can do. The world needs more than that though...anyone could see that. Those who are aware and do not take the steps to do more are guilty. It would be like watching a child drowning and doing nothing to help.
I find the assertion that only through god can you be REALLY good incredibly condescending and arrogant.
As Darwinian has already pointed out he considers himself to be a good person and I agree, yet because he does not beieve in an almighty god his goodness is somehow less good than yours.
Even when your goodness is down to impress a supernatural being and Darwinians is just because he is good.
If anyhing this devalues goodness done for religion rather than just because we are good.
