Also, osgart...the reason innocents get swept along with the carnage created by the wicked ones is just an unavoidable scenario simply because we are all in this together..as one consciousness, a species that is capable of separate thought streams..aka the knowledge of opposites...aka you and me, them verse us mentality.

Until we all realise there is only one of us here having multitudes of separate experiences ..then we will all suffer from our own ill thoughts that we are separate consciousnesses not one...and we will fall on our own self created sword.

. We are love, but if we choose to turn away from that love we already are..then we are only inflicting pain upon ourself...no one else is doing that to us. It is only ever God who does it to himself.

By all means, but leave the spiritual book of Revelation, "The Ouzo Prophecy" and the Church of Ouzo alone!

To consider it from a different perspective, of God were to consistently and actively interfere with humans, in terms of causation, wouldn't that disrupt our free will?

there really is only one type of thing to govern out of existence and that is maliciousness and harm.A God would be very interested in ending that.
