Do you think there is a perfect balance of negativity and positivity?

Question

Call it good/evil, god/satan, sun/rain, whatever.

Doesn't it feel for every beautiful sunset, there's an abused child. For every first kiss there's rape. For every family dinner, there's someone starving.

Is this on purpose?

What are your thoughts?

Answer 1

Job didn't think so.

Answer 2

I don't know if such a balance is 'perfect' but I do know that I wouldn't appreciate a healthy body and mind as much as I do, without at sometime experiencing a lack of health. I wouldn't appreciate a meal as much had I never been hungry.

Crime angers me, and I'm not certain that pure evil is necessary to reveal pure benevolence. In any case, this world is temporary, as are our lives. Perhaps 'evil' people are necessary on some level that I don't yet understand.

I don't think that the balance is as yet perfect though.

Answer 3

A balance of negative and positive is ZERO. That theory is rubbish. Man active in the domain of Satan has at his disposal the use of freewill and the knowledge of good and evil. Even if you know that it is evil to abuse a child, but that is your choice, well that is that. It has nothing to do with anybody but you.

Heaven is a world inhabited by spirits who are born of the Spirit and are led to do the will of GOD. It is a world of bliss. Are you born of water?

Answer 4

I think there is more good than evil in the world, but I think it is up to each of us to combat evil any way we can.
Those of us who have more should find a way to share with those who have less. We should stand up for those who are weak and cannot stand up for themselves. We should make small sacrifices for the good of others whenever we can.

Answer 5

good doesn't balance out evil, that's not how things work. if you tried to put good and evil on a scale, the scale could not hold the weight of either...

the thing is, evil exists because we let it. man gives into sinful temptations. things don't happen because good and evil need to balance out. nothing works that way...

Answer 6

Yeah, everything does have a balance. Every action has an equal and oppotie reaction or result. That's life, you have to work for what you want. Your future is what you make of it.

Answer 7

Yes, but I wouldn't apply moral value judgments like right or wrong, good or bad.
It is more like the alternating currents of electricity.

Rape and abused children are imbalances.

Answer 8

As Christians, we could desire to continuously be striving to "be like Christ", that's particularly complicated because of the fact such as you mentioned we are no longer appropriate and God became into! The bible says we've all sinned and are available in need of the honor of God, so your thoughts are widely used and additionally you're no longer the sole sinner. you're doing the main stunning ingredient in praying for training. in case you think that God provide you with that training, then he will. you may desire to be truthful once you pray and believe that God provide you with what you opt for. i've got self assurance that we are punished for our sins. this is obvious what we could desire to continuously and should no longer do. stay prayerful and ask God for forgiveness. i will pray for you besides!

Answer 9

my thoughts are that for everything good theres about 10 things evil ...... theres not a balance of anything like that ... darkness is the lack of light and is nothing ... neither does light require darkness to exist ...

Answer 10

Maybe it's not balance out and that's why a lot of things happen.

Maybe it HAS to balance.

Maybe thats a LAW of the universe.

Answer 11

Ideas and perceptions will always have a negative. For this is part of their definition, that they contrast with other ideas.

Physical actions, objects, etc do not have opposites. They breed reaction, not contrast.
