I do not seek to earn any status either. Seeking status is simply pride. I seek to improve myself ethically as much as is possible, and I have no doubt that the ultimate source of such improvement is infinitely larger than I am.

On the contrary, I think that good and evil are interdependent and that, while we must always seek to do good, evil will occur nonetheless. Leibniz, who was a Christian and a traditional theist, came to a similar conclusion.
