It is not religion, not god that made you a good man but a fervor deep within.
In Sunset Limited, the 2011 film directed by Tommy Lee Jones, White (Jones) and Black (Samuel L. Jackson) have an existential debate, after White attempted suicide, and Black prevented him from being successful at it.
Black alludes to the notion that everything of value written in the Bible, is present in the soul of man to begin with. In the same vein, I know that your goodness would have been palpable to all who knew you, even if you had not been devoted to your belief in the divine power as your guidance and anchor.
