I'm not sure what the difference is between generosity and liberality? Something for me to think about.

It's a hard call, but to me Humility is probably the most important because it is a good doorway to the others. Of course Patience could also be a doorway...maybe they all could. But it seems to me that Humility is a lack of pretentiousness about what you do and don't know, and also the realization that you don't know everything. And knowing that, allows you to back-up quickly when you realize you are wrong. To me, it's fundamental to learning the other virtues....or learning anything really.

Hoping the best for you...

Patience

All of them are equaly important to me. They all balance each other out. If one were too kind, they would be a pushover. If one were too generous, they would have nothing left for themselves and their family. If one were too courageous, they may get into danger. Each virtue must balance out the others. It is best when all virtues work together in harmony.

I'm not sure about the difference between Genorosity and Liberality either? Hmmm...

Valour is a good one and so is patience. Why? Valour defined as courage and knowledge and patience will allow the other virtues to grow as well.

Thanks for asking a decent question!

Personally I would think Patience. Without patience I think it makes the other virtues harder to achieve because the road is often long and rocky.

Generosity pertains to beer specifically. The giving of free beer is the greatest of these virtues, because then I don't have to pay for it.

It's a tossup between humility and kindness. God really stressed humilty as being an important trait in a person, and it seemed to me that Jesus seemed to stress the importance of loving your neighbors as yourself (perhaps in the form of kindness).

Humility.

It is the key from which all the rest flows. Without humility all of the other vices become distorted forms of vanity fueled by pride.

Kindness. Because it spreads and parts of kindness are humility, and patience so you have 3 of them going for you already.
