The flavour of ice-cream

“good” without God is just a private opinion, as subjective as a favorite food.

Be careful with the government, for they befriend a person only for their own needs. They appear to be friends when it is beneficial to them, but they do not stand by a person at the time of his distress. (quoted from Avos [Ethics of the Fathers] 2:3, with my sister-in-law in mind)
