THIS IS A LONG ASS MESSAGE!! IF YOU READ IT ALL, I GIVE YOU PROPS. IF YOU DON'T......... ITS STILL ALL LOVE.....
Then, of course, how do we define evil?
And I mean a general description....
you could say that a sniper taking out innocent people is evil.
And that a man raping a woman is evil.....
but, where is the single definition?
it can't be.....
evil: killing and raping, etc.
So, what is evil?
I have looked at this from different perspectives and I've come up with 2 definitions. One more absolute and the other more relative.
The first one, "good" versus "evil" is like the "desirable" versus the "Undesirable". This definition is more relative because what I desire may be a little different than what someone else does. Same thing with what I don't desire.
The second, If you believe in God, would be to take what we can know about God and find that which cannot be of God. For instance: God is infinite. The "evil" to this would be, God is limited and has boundaries. Yet, in only seeing one of these definitions without the other is to see only the absolute or only the relative. Whether or not evil dies; In God's perception, evil never existed. God perceives perfection. Only in our eyes do we create evil. That seems to be why the idea of evil changes among different people. Because it is a relative idea. And as far as whether demons and devil do or do not exist is beyond my understanding. What isn't beyond my understanding is this: demons or the devil are not a true opposing force to God. God has no opponent for the mere fact that God cannot create that which goes against his nature. The devil has no power, knowing that God is ALL-POWERFUL. And the devil has no power over any of us, unless we let him or her have power. Any opposing power to God's must be an illusion in our eyes and not even the tiniest concern in the eyes of God.
