Evil lies within human mind, and not on the scriptures. To believe otherwise, is the fallacy of religions. The base cause of near most if not all of the suffering and evil are due to greed, and cruelty of human mind. Unfortunately, it is also part of the basic survival mechanism that made our race successful in the past. However, the future is different. Its different because science have advanced, and our methods of killing had become more cruel and destructive .
If we keep on mire in the past, dwell ourselves on scriptures, then you will never find the solution or the pathway to peace.
Instead, you will find even more endless cycles of hatred and destruction.
Surely, if a benevolent entity really exist, then it would not want the vicious cycle to continue.
I don't blame God, ....for
MY choices, here.
tickleandrose,
This place isn't real.
This place is a 'construct'. .....
imo.
This place is only a 'shakedown' and proving ground,
to see to expose how we will repeatedly choose.
You have a
conscience.
And so do i.
And so does every other human being.
Deuteronomy 8:2
And thou shalt remember all the way which the LORD thy God led thee these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, and to prove thee, to know what was in thine heart, whether thou wouldest keep his commandments, or no.
Revelation 22:11
He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.
12 And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
13 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.
16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.
John 6:63
It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
We all choose our own path here.
And that is
our purpose here.
