The point is, if you create something you put your energy into it, if there is absolutely no 'evil' ?

Question

...in you energy, your creation too will be without negative result. If there is a creator why is it the creations fault if things are bad or 'wrong' or 'evil'? When a designer creates a faulty design, who's fault is it?

Answer 1

Let's say you were creating a computer game in which the participants were going to be competing in creating works of art........are you going to get more participants and more works of art if you (a) allow everything or (b) make sure that only pastel colors can be used, and no bass notes or minor keys may be used?

The answer is (a) if course, and you may be wondering what this has to do with your question.
There is no 'evil' anywhere, but there is negativity, and most of that comes from the interactions of people who are short-sighted, ill-informed, ignorant, set in their ways, close-minded, or unable to deal with change. Even things that seem to be the most uncaused working of chance are purposefully manifested by the people who are experiencing them either as challenges for them to overcome or as contrast to the rest of their lives.
But it's allright - - - there's no 'blame' to be derived, the only question when you find yourself in a negative situation is, How do you react to it? Who are you? Your life is the work of art that you are choosing, so what do you choose?

Answer 2

Creating anything is absolutely not evil unless you intend afterwards to use it for evil purposes. Faulty design is just a cause of incomplete studies, components or consideration to the project. It is no one's fault unless you are creating something you are not completely aware of the outcome and it came out different from what you initially want to happen.
Now, I can sense you are leading your question to God's creation of man that you thought probably God made some of them to be wrong. And if you are a bad you want to bring the blame back to God for making you that way, in that case, no one should blame you only.
Well, you were created for "GOOD" purposes that is why in Genesis, God always say, "And it was good" after every accomplishment. In all His creation everything goes into cycle of birth and death. Animals seem to have a definite pattern of being born survivng only by instincts and living by a definite way allowed by nature. Man on the other hand was given an intelligence to decide what way he should live and survive on the planet. Then of course with that intelligence, thinking humans are able to find that he has a choice to make. His survival depends on his ability to exist with one another. Those choices are always compose of what can be bad or good for himself and for the others. It is no longer the creator who makes one to be good or bad. It is already the man's choice.

Answer 3

This is indeed a sensitive topic to ponder on.

Mainly because there is a thin line between disbelief and belief.

Now, assuming you know the following code of creation.

1.There can only be One God.

2. this automatically means that only one thing is perfect, eternal, the best, etc.

so naturally everything else will have to be less than that because they are not God.

Humans are born with a free will and potential to do both good and evil.

This is an important point.

This is the main reason why God preferred humans over all his other creatures, because they have the choice to do evil, but some, dont.

We are limited, weak, feeble, and so is our will.

Our will does not work on things like planets, like other humans, nor does it work to change anything else but ourselves.

When we change ourselves, we change the choices we make and therefore influence our future.

even tho it feels like you are being led by God to do everything, you know very well, deep down, that youre not .

You make choices everyday...

dont let the devil tell you, its God that moves your actions..

it could be...but youre the one who comes with the inclination.

Answer 4

Mankind's free will.
The story of Adam and Eve centers on the "Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil". They made the choice, not God.
We have been cursed with the consequence ever since.
Why create us with free will in the first place?
Love. He could have created us like robots. He could have demanded it from us. Instead, He gives us freewill to chose to give our love to Him. Love, to be love, must be given. The evil in this world is not God's doing.. it's ours.

Answer 5

Morality

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nevertheless. -- however credit and debit balances may stand: at its present state as a specific individual science the awakening of moral observation has become necessary, and mankind can no longer be spared the cruel sight of the moral dissecting table and its knives and forceps... the older philosophy... has, with paltry evasions, always avoided investigation of the origin and history of the moral sensations. With what consequences is now very clearly apparent, since it has been demonstrated in many instances how the errors of the greatest philosophers usually have their point of departure in a false explanation of certain human actions and sensations; ...a false ethics is erected, religion and mythological monsters are then in turn called to buttress it, and the shadow of these dismal spirits in the end falls even across physics and the entire perception of the world.

from Nietzsche's Human, all too Human, s.37, R.J. Hollingdale transl.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Morality makes stupid.-- Custom represents the experiences of men of earlier times as to what they supposed useful and harmful - but the sense for custom (morality) applies, not to these experiences as such, but to the age, the sanctity, the indiscussability of the custom. And so this feeling is a hindrance to the acquisition of new experiences and the correction of customs: that is to say, morality is a hindrance to the development of new and better customs: it makes stupid.

from Nietzsche's Daybreak,s. 19, R.J. Hollingdale transl.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Whoever has overthrown an existing law of custom has always first been accounted a bad man: but when, as did happen, the law could not afterwards be reinstated and this fact was accepted, the predicate gradually changed; - history treats almost exclusively of these bad men who subsequently became good men!

from Nietzsche's Daybreak,s. 20, R.J. Hollingdale transl.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What is new, however, is always evil, being that which wants to conquer and overthrow the old boundary markers and the old pieties; and only what is old is good. The good men are in all ages those who dig the old thoughts, digging deep and getting them to bear fruit - the farmers of the spirit. But eventually all land is depleted, and the ploughshare of evil must come again and again.

from Nietzsche's The Gay Science, s. 4, Walter Kaufmann transl.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Suspicious.-- To admit a belief merely because it is a custom - but that means to be dishonest, cowardly, lazy! - And so could dishonesty, cowardice and laziness be the preconditions for morality?

from Nietzsche's Daybreak,s. 101, R.J. Hollingdale transl.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

... hitherto we have been permitted to seek beauty only in the morally good - a fact which sufficiently accounts for our having found so little of it and having had to seek about for imaginary beauties without backbone! - As surely as the wicked enjoy a hundred kinds of happiness of which the virtuous have no inkling, so too they possess a hundred kinds of beauty; and many of them have not yet been discovered.

from Nietzsche's Daybreak, s. 468, R.J. Hollingdale transl


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It is, indeed, a fact that, in the midst of society and sociability every evil inclination has to place itself under such great restraint, don so many masks, lay itself so often on the procrustean bed of virtue, that one could well speak of a martyrdom of the evil man. In solitude all this falls away. He who is evil is at his most evil in solitude: which is where he is at his best - and thus to the eye of him who sees everywhere only a spectacle also at his most beautiful.

from Nietzsche's Daybreak, s. 499, R.J. Hollingdale transl


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Where the good begins.-- Where the poor power of the eye can no longer see the evil impulse as such because it has become too subtle, man posits the realm of goodness; and the feeling that we have now entered the realm of goodness excites all those impulses which had been threatened and limited by the evil impulses, like the feeling of security, of comfort, of benevolence. Hence, the duller the eye, the more extensive the good. Hence the eternal cheerfulness of the common people and of children. Hence the gloominess and grief - akin to a bad conscience - of the great thinkers.

from Nietzsche's The Gay Science, s. 53, Walter Kaufmann transl.

Answer 6

"The mind is the builder."

It's like the old fashioned slide projectors.

The light is the event in our life. (Neutral)

The slide is how we react to it. (Attitude)

What is projected on the screen is the reality we create. (Reality)
