You stated that the desire to be good comes from God.

Can I reject your god and still be a good person? Does this goodness come from the same source? Does your god compel Wiccans, Budhists, Hindus, etc. to be good?

Many have forums for just that. Some in private sessions and some in what many call "Sunday School".
