Was it Mark Twain as well that said "Good people will always do good things. Evil people will always do evil things. But for good people to do evil things requires religion".?
Is it likely, that he that dwelleth in heaven should regard the things on earth? And doth the Almighty observe and mark the very smallest of our words and works? He hath given to all creatures a certain inclination and nature, which he hath made their own; and so leaveth them now in the hand of their own counsel, that they of their own nature may move, increase, perish, and do even what they lust. Tush, God neither knoweth, nor doth greatly trouble himself about these toys.
Theodoret, De Providentia, c 400AD (quoting "the wicked, together with epicures")
(I had to trim it a bit, to make it more short and snappy.)
