"For God everything is beautiful, good, and just."
I read this quotation from an ancient Greek philosopher a while back. It took a momont for its profundity, its irony, its subversiveness to sink in. Think about the meaning of "everything" in the sentence. It's scary, but this quotation comes closest to summing up my view of what a god must be like of any I've read.
