Whether you recognize a need (or in fact do not possess any need) wouldn't affect those other articles either. Sometimes we don't need the things that we do get, which are good. Ultimately, there's nothing about human beings that could provide a god with the warrant we're considering. Just as no fact about me morally justifies your own personal decisions.
