The Basic Goodness of Man Depends on the Perfect Good of God

I would not claim belief in God

essential for man to be ‘good’

his ‘good’ too common spread

that his disbeliefs would disallow

imperfect yet echo of His glory

God’s own bearers of His image

and owning either faith or doubt

each can do his own little goods

which His perfect good empowers
