1. God creates and sustains all of creation at all times
2. Intellect makes Man unique and exhalted from amongst creation (2:30-34)
3. With the great power of this intellect, comes great responsibility (spider man fans should recognize this mantra)
4. This responsibility is a sacred moral trust (amaana)
5. To the extent we have any power over any other person, or any part of creation, it is within the confines of this amaana.
6. Therefore, by not seizing on every opportunity to do good, you are abusing God. (I borrowed this line from someone else, but I like it very much)

You forgot to credit Stan Lee/Spider-Man for the “with great power comes great responsibility” quote.
How right you are. I’ve fixed the grievous error. 🙂
That’s a lovely little piece of logic/theology. I like that very much.
