Evil person can also be defined as a being who cause suffering and confusion. So everything is well defined.sthitapragya wrote:Yeah but they are subjected to evil. They are not evil.

By your definition anyone suffering and confused would be evil.
That is true that anyone in state of suffering and confusion is subjected to Evil.

Re: God created Evil
So a person creates evil then because a person causes another to be confused and suffer. In that case, God did not create evil but the person does.bahman wrote:Evil person can also be defined as a being who cause suffering and confusion.

God of course created Evil since he was cognitively open to act of creation. He knew very well what would happen by act of creation.

bahman...your statement is so wrong and misleading ... lets turn this around to the main focal point of reference...bahman wrote:

Can YOU know what's going to happen next? ....there is only you here did you know that?
You might say there are others AS WELL... which is true, but without you there is no other...think about that?
This is how reality works...
Now, I'm a really nice person so I am happy to discuss with you the things I've said if you want to.??
Re: God created Evil
God for example knows that a person does Evil in a given situation. He still persist to create universe. Hence he create Evil since there would be no Evil without creation. Couldn't God create a universe without Evil? Of course he could since He is omnipotent and omniscient.Dontaskme wrote:bahman...your statement is so wrong and misleading ... lets turn this around to the main focal point of reference...bahman wrote: God of course created Evil since he was cognitively open to act of creation.

Re: God created Evil
Talking about others bahman ...we only see our own reflection in others. We are all mirrors to each other. We cannot know the mind of another or meet up, or touch their mind simply because they are not separate from your mind, they are not over there, while you are over here...over there is really here ..and here is the only place there is, over there is only ever an appearance of there happening here.
Do you see this?
Do you see this?

When an idea arises, something is created in the exact same moment.
No one creates evil except the belief in the concept itself.
A concept is just an idea believed.
Ideas arise in YOU....YOU are the zero point in which all ideas arise, where they happen. They do not happen out there separate from you.
When you are asleep at night and you go into deep dreamless sleep...where are you, where is evil, where is the world?
It's all your doing....and at the same time not you, because you are an idea too.
I know people do not want to believe this...but it's the truth...sages have known it for centuries.
No one sees out of their eyes....there is only one seer...seeing through every creature on earth... everything is seeing with the same seeing faculty unless of course there is a fault with the apparatus faculty that allows the seerless seeing to pass through...you can't seer the seer because you are it.
Everything is you...if you don't like evil, don't create it in your life.
If you then say to yourself I am free of evil...but I know evil exists in the world out-there....then that's still only because you are thinking about it.
You have no idea evil exists outside of you, have you ever stepped outside of YOU?
Evil is therefore your idea...your creation.
The world out-there...is just a mirror of you.
I have a lot of time for people who genuinely want to understand this bahman...so please feel free to ask any question you like. I tend to prefer to talk to the topic content rather than the individual person.

Re: God created Evil
I just did. God created people. People did acts which caused evil to be created. God of course knew that this would happen. But he did not create evil. Otherwise, everyone would be evil.bahman wrote:So you need to show that something is wrong with OP.sthitapragya wrote:So a person creates evil then because a person causes another to be confused and suffer.

Re: God created Evil
Just for the sake of argument, let's assume God created evil: 'God, you're to blame for this!' Great, I feel better myself, having assigned blame. What can we do with this revelation?
Re: God created Evil
Why you think that everyone would be Evil? God created universe and creation is Good and Evil meaning that some people are Evil and some are God. God however responsible for Evil because he could create a universe which can only be Good.sthitapragya wrote:I just did. God created people. People did acts which caused evil to be created.

Re: God created Evil
This means that God is not Good but neutral when it comes to Good and Evil. This means that God is responsible for all our suffering. He also responsible for confusion in creation.Dalek Prime wrote: Just for the sake of argument, let's assume God created evil: 'God, you're to blame for this!'

Re: God created Evil
I know that difference. God in fact create Good and Evil universe because He knew that Good and Evil would happen. Who is responsible for Evil? God again. Are we responsible for Evil? No, because each of us has certain potential to resist Evil.sthitapragya wrote:There is a difference between creating something and being responsible for something.bahman wrote:Why you think that everyone would be Evil?

Re: God created Evil
Yes, that's dystheism, which I accept as a possibility. And all we can do is rant at God, to no avail. Well, we can also stop giving him new people to torture, but that's another story.bahman wrote:This means that God is not Good but neutral when it comes to Good and Evil.
