If the definition of love is my involuntary response to virtue if I am virtuous, then what is the definition of virtue? I think we all know instinctively what actions are virtuous as compared to not, in general, but how do we know? How do we fact check? Is charity virtuous? What if charity results in enabling an existing problem rather than fixing it? Does that context make that example of charity immoral? If so then charity in general can't be virtuous. Or that example isn't charity. Someone asked how to love; someone else stated what love is; someone further state what virtue is. However while I can accept the premise that "Love is an involuntary response to virtue if I am myself virtuous" I do not know for sure what is virtue. And that's the key part that ends the pondering and allows action in pursuing love and evolution.

I'm sorry if I've glanced over it. There are so many podcasts. It can get messy and confusing. I'd like a concise definition and explanation. Thank you.

So, I go to a Catholic School and am currently learning the Church's stance on certain morals and morality as a whole. I honestly don't care what the Church teaches, but it made me do some thinking. I've been thinking that if there is no God, then there is no set standard for morality. Therefore, morals would rely solely on opinion. Like I said, I haven't been thinking about this for too long, so I'm open to ideas and opinions. Thanks!
