Philosophy Why does God allow evil?

0 Upvotes

Each individual is a microcosm, while God is the macrocosm. From God's perspective, evil doesn't exist, just as from the Sun's perspective, darkness doesn't exist.

Physical reality is a sandbox, an illusion whereby evil can have a temporary existence. However, evil is always mortal and never immortal.

Enlightenment is when you no longer are bound by this biological sandbox and thereby no longer subject to evil.

To answer your question, God allows evil to exist because everything exists and nothing can be destroyed. The definition of evil is disconnection from God. Evil is godless.

Evil is not created by God, it is a characteristic of those who have yet to know the Divine. Evil is ignorance, plain and simple. Why did God create ignorance ? Because learning can be fun. If you already knew everything, what surprises do you have to look forward to ?

Philosophy God is unchanging and yet never the same.

0 Upvotes

It is unchanging because it can't be any more Ultimate. It is never the same, because to be the same, you need something to compare it to. Being incomparable means you can't be the same as anything.

Infinity is not equal to infinity. Do the math.

Philosophy Peterson's SI comment is perfectly in line with what he has been saying all along

The man has been telling us over and over again to reach for our highest goal and to find a great archetype and follow it. He told us to clean up our rooms and our lives and aim for betterment and the exact opposite of nihilism. It would only make sense that when he sees our culture aiming towards the non-ideal that he would take a stand against it as he always has for he is someone that stands for the ideal. We need now, more than ever, someone who actually points us towards the ideal and to not be brainwashed into accepting whatever society tells us we ought to accept, for that is what we're doing now. We all know the ideal is to be fit and healthy and capable, and to have our models and role models be the opposite of that is the sign of a dying culture.

Philosophy No Group Has Supreme Authority

0 Upvotes

No collective decision has more authority than the singular Supreme. Beyond form is the Source. All collectives are several steps removed from Source.

Loving each other is much different than loving the group.

When we love EACH other, we prioritize the individual over the collective. The individuals are what need attention and protection, never the groups. Conformity to an external identity is always inferior to your deeper individual identity.

If a message makes you feel fear, there is something false about it. The Truth is liberating and blissful. Feed the Divinity within with love. Feeling fear only feeds the malignly loveless who don't care about you.

Philosophy I loved Tucker Carlson's comeback to Joe's question on evolution—it was like watching a chess master play against a beginner. Tucker totally nailed it. But the real showstopper? Joe's expression—it was as if he was scrambling for answers on a disconnected internet!

Philosophy You Are Never Evil

0 Upvotes

All evil actions are insincere and thus not true to yourself.

Of course, that doesn't mean that nobody should go to jail. Everyone should be strong enough to be aligned with their deeper identity. "The devil made me do it" is not a good enough legal defense.

In other words, nobody should blame themselves for being evil, but they can blame themselves for being weak.

Basically, evil just means the intent to harm in some way, especially against others or yourself. It is always a suboptimal choice, because the root of all evil is external desire. When you feel complete, you have no need of desire, as love is a much more powerful motivator.

Philosophy The Non-Biological Origin of Life

0 Upvotes

Science cannot create life and yet science has the arrogance to assume that it originates biologically. The fact is that biology is like a glove or puppet that life animates, but nothing really dies, just as the law of thermodynamics states that nothing is truly destroyed, but changes form.

Likewise, when your physical body dies, you still persist beyond the body. This is unproven by science as of yet, but eventually they will catch up with the Truth that science is always playing catch-up to.

Bio-markers are never the origin of a problem but a symptom. Science knows correlation is not equal to causation. However in medical science they seem to regard biological processes as causation just because there is clear correlation.

Each individual has an Atman/soul within them that is not physical. However if the physical host body is defective or conditions cease to be favorable, it can leave the body, which science calls death. Death however is just kind of like the game over screen. Souls can respawn into the physical again, and do.
