All of us can see Beauty as Beauty only because there is Ugliness. All can know good as Good only because there is Evil. Those from Having and not having arise together. Difficulty and Easy compliment eachother. None of us can dodge these inevitable truths. So be like the Sun and what is in you will warm the Earth. Originally Posted by Mr MojoRisin

I will admit that it sounds like a clever rationale and one which I have heard before in different guises, but after reflection I cannot buy it.
That is like saying you cannot have clean clothes in your house unless you have dirty clothes in order to tell the difference.
When you have discernment and a good nose, you can tell who is unwashed with only a quick sniff.
. . . Evil is not necessary. It is just a direct consequence of ignorance. Originally Posted by Fast Gunn

It sounds to me that you are only trying to stir up some shit as is your wont or maybe just build a case for evil. Possibly a vain attempt to validate your own miserable existence.Why would you say that? Have we ever met. Have I ever told you I was miserable? Do you think I am evil and do not deserve to live?

The central point being made is that there plainly is evil in this world and my contention is that it stems from ignorance.

Judging from your pompous pronouncements, I would say that is something that you are intimately familiar with.

. . . Now, as for Lauren Summerhill, what in the world does she have to do with any of this and why drag her into this argument?
