I believe godly virtues include things like charity, mercy, truth, self-control, austerity, penance, sacrifice and so on. All virtues like these require selflessness in some form or another. This does not include

Regarding our relationship with God we are all part and parcel of the Supreme Being though we may be infinitesimal. So we are all, in a sense, part of the body of God. Being part of God means our true self is all godly.

In this material existence our identification with the material existence is so complex we have trouble believing that our true self is eternal.

I think choosing a religion should be for a guide for communication with the creator, and a guide for moral living. Agreed these are the most important aspects.

If you are in it to seek rewards on heaven or earth or simply out of fear of death, hell and the unknown. You have a pretty shallow belief.

the project with that concept is that there is allot of rivalry to what Godly virtues are. if you're targeted on the OT you'll come to the top that God became wrathful and eliminated unbelievers. it truly is a Godly distinctive feature everyday time after time contained in the OT. So flow get em. if you're a Muslim and are taught an identical then you definately strap a bomb for your chest, flow to the mall and kill babies contained in the call of God. related to relationships, it truly is difficult to verify a courting with someone who would not talk right now with you. What usually finally ends up taking position is human beings assume a courting exists, and then assign 'God" to familiar activities. case in point i'd pray for well being and then discover out I particularly have maximum cancers. God must have plans for my tumor suitable?

Well, it seems to go without saying that in a religion, the most important thing is the very reason for that religion. I don't see how it could be otherwise.

I don't think too many religions would posit the existence of an all-powerful being then have a holy book primarily about interest rates.

You have entered this question in the Philosophy section. Theism deals with the identity of, and relationships with God. Virtues are moral judgments. We are are "part and parcel" of ONE, but your infinitesimal understanding of that ONE determines your perceived relationship. You personify that ONE and like the many varied religions require others to see things as you do.

My religion's thoughts of anything close to a god is something that is anthropomorphic and impersonal.
