the church of goodness

what we know is that we don't know.

No need to reject.

We want to do what's good for self. Who is the self? So long as we utilize the advantages of societal life, our selves are dependent on the structure of that society. Therefore, in our pursuit of self good, we must also pursue societal good. How do we define societal good? How do we define self good?

Churches have aided societal progress in their establishment of standards of goodness for members of society to abide by.

We should be living for self and societal progress. Therein lies goodness.

concepts of society always should account for environment since societies are dependent on their environments.

basically we should just do what's best for everything.

But what is that?

bibles let deities guide us to righteousness and the ultimate good.

We don't need to ask deities. We need to ask each other.

The church of goodness should exist for the good of the good.

Everybody wants to be happy. We should all respect each other's right to achieve the goals that lead to personal happiness so long as our pursuit does not inhibit the pursuit of another. This becomes cyclical so we set up societal standards to establish rights and guide action to avoid unintentional inhibition of the action of others.

the church of goodness should be the keeper of those standards that transcend local societies in universally guiding all intentional action.

Let's do it.
