What if the point is not good vs evil. What if the point is a balance of the two? Is it not that all things are in moderation? If it is all things, that does include good and evil. It does include faith and science.
What if the end is nothing more than the begining? A true and perfect neutrality and a balance of all things....

I replied when your post was blank. Once my post went up you had edited your's to include some content and my post was no longer relevant. So I edited it out.
Do you actually have anything to add to the actual post or were you just here to harass?

In my response, I had incorrectly guessed as to what you thought we may all be wrong about. When you edited your post to include your ruminations on good and evil, my reply was no longer relevant. So I edited it.
I am not harassing you. I am merely defending my actions in light of your shoddy posting skills. So, NO, I have nothing else to add to this thread.

Originally posted by KnightWulfeThe perfect "neutrality" was the Garden of Eden. It is about good and evil now,in all things pertaining to this earth. Man has entered into an area of knowledge of understanding good and evil, that he was never equipt with when he was created. How many times did GOD create an situation as is in the life of this planet. We may never know. All we we do know is that we(mankind) has failed.

Originally posted by blindfaith101Neutrality is not balance, and there is nothing in the biblical account that suggests the Garden had a balance between good and evil. For ideas of balance, you might look towards Taoism, the Iroquois False Face Society, or a number of other places outside the Judeo-Christian-Muslim traditions.
The perfect "neutrality" was the Garden of Eden.
Leslie Silko's first novel, Ceremony (1977), offers some interesting perspectives regarding balance in the fusion of Western Anglo-American and Pueblo traditions. It also is one of the best books I've read.

Originally posted by rwingettYes, there was an edit - for a spelling mistake that was made. I never claimed that. So if you please take your ill-founded and incorrect insults and throw them at someone else.

You are nothing but a troll. I have yet to read a thread, when you have posted something, where you do anything else but insult or instigate.
BF101 - You are not getting it. What I am saying is what if you are wrong? What if God is NOT the correct answer? What if nothing that has been presented to the world is the correct answer?

If you haven't read any threads where I posted something, then it's because you haven't read very many posts. How do you think I got 610 recs, you moron? Do a little forum search, why don't you?

Originally posted by lucifershammerIt is only a thought.... What I meant was the ultimate goal being balance. What if "good" and "evil" are only concepts there to see that the end goal of a perfect balance is achieved? What of "order" and "chaos"? These things are entirely separate from "good" and "evil" It will, of course, sway as times pass, being "good" or "evil" or "ordered" or "chaotic"....
Exactly how is this balance supposed to be maintained?
