Why do we have to pay the price for something that our ancestors did?

I think that people use the term "evil" because it is a very convenient way to categorize things that are happening to us: opposites good/evil. But I don´t believe that there actually is any evil or that any person is really a sinner in the biblical sense, we all are just imperfect and are learning all the time and progressing.

I would say that evil is what is against The Nature and natural laws and what is hence unnatural. I think that any sane and whole person knows innately and instictively - you may use the term conscience - what is right and wrong. So it is the human choice and free will which make us do "good" or "evil" deeds and things and thus actually create the "good" and "evil" in the world.

´It is our world to use, but not abuse.´ The Earth makes us to know when we are abusing it - doing "evil". The Nature doesn´t let us abuse it infinitely, there are bound to be reactions and consequences. People may say that these consequences are "evil", but they are really only the results of our own bad deeds against The Nature. Some people could say that it is the punishment from the God, but anyway it is still the same thing. There are actions, and there are reactions.

I don't think there is anything mysterious or spirituality motivated about evil or morality in general. The capacity for human intelligence carries with it as many pitfalls as benefits. One of those is the capacity to make choices, act in a way,etc we collectively call evil. For the most part we all have slightly varying but generally concrete concepts of where we draw the lines of good and evil, even if some issues exist. The single greatest reason I think that evils will always exist in society is that 99% of the time, doing what we call evil is easier than doing good. If you have someone with peers who don't try to disuade someone from a certain act or mode of thinking like that, and no one has ever taught someone some sense of moral grounding, doing the easier thing makes sense to people.

This is a non issue.

YOU SIMPLY CANNOT "PUT ASIDE" the fall of man.

This is also known as the Adamic nature. We will all sin, either in thought or in deed.
The purpose of EVIL? I do not get this Q?
Satan hates YOU, ME, and all of God's creation....He seeks to destroy us. We let him, by not staying in the protective covering of GOD's WILL.
The LORD will often use what satan meant for our demise, and take it and turn it into a blessing. GOD buffets satan at every turn.

A person completely secluded since birth, who is 100% without outside influence, will still sin. It is a SOLID fact of our existence.

Who teaches a toddler (who has never witnessed the upcoming actions ever before...)
to get mean and whack another toddler upside the head with the very toy that this toddler wants. Right there you have:
greed
vengeance
selfishness
theft
ill will
This small example is just a taste of what is in our nature. OUR Adamic nature is in opposition to GOD because by the fall, we became seperated thru sin. GOD WILL NEVER BE IN THE PRESENCE OF SIN. IT WILL NEVER OCCUR. Period.

JESUS is the only way to bridge the non-communication with GOD. We can have a personal relationship with JESUS, but many chose not to~ why? because they know that there sin, and all that is hidden, will be brought into the light of GOD's glory, and they will thus be held accountable to STOP that sin.

Jesus, just seek JESUS!

Well you can put aside the fall of man story if you wish but if you were diagnosed with cancer and wanted to find the cause would you put aside any part or test of this search for the cause of your cancer or deem it as irrelevant? I don't think so because you would in that case want to know the truth because the truth will help you work out how to get rid of the cancer just like the truth will help you get rid of the hard life you are living and trade it for a much better one that you wish for but if you really want to put away the fall of man explanation then I will not give it to you but it will be like searching for your cause of the cancer you may have that you may want to know why you have it and if the doctors ask you for your parents medical history, and you refute it, saying that you have no connection to them anymore, because you did not sin, oh you can do so, but will you find your answers? I doubt it.If you want the truth you have to search every possibility and every bit of evidence you can find.

evil has no purpose but to prove freewill
it is really our own freechoice,
evil is rejection of the good ,light ,love life,
thus evil is darkness ,in the darkness we can fall of freewill right into rebirth ,in fact we all had to pass that way to be here

its really funny that is why we all have original sin ,
we are eternal spirits ,
in rejecting good ,love and the light[god] we fall eventually
our fall can fall into the lowest hells [into the pits of reincarnation] who's usual course ends in rebirth
its how we all came here

while we are all sinners
here as man/woman we can live the gift of light and continue anew to of freewill chose to do good by overcoming our animal natures ,to try to love the doing of good works to once again regain the heavens [the light ,love truth of life] till we again fall into the pits again [should this be our nature]

satan did it but fell so low he reincarnated as a snake
for only higher [lessor evil] can incarnate in to higher [human ] incarnation
the lowest of the low can come here as slime ,or i any of the lower or higher incarnations dependant on our root evil lusts and lower baser passions ,

yet life once created [gifted of love can only live] regardless of the body form we inhabit [an endless cycle] rising and falling as high as we wish [light beings ] or as low as we have earned

More to the point, why would you expect it *not* to be hard? Why would you expect there *not* to be evil? We are a species of animal in a universe that neither knows nor cares about our existence, and the only thing that is going to stop us having a hard time is our own efforts.

the fact is that we are born sinners. believe it or not. like it or not. know it or not.

the purpose of evil lies in the spiritual ream.
let me simplify it by saying that they are two spiritual kingdom HELL and HEAVEN at war. we are subjects to those kingdoms.
you must follow or be contolled or be guided or act according to one of them.
see the last chapters of the book of ephisians or contact me for more deatils.

Now the purpose of evil is a benefit of satan, hence you are a servant of satan.

Evil is there to show the glory of righteousness.

Good deeds show the virtue of reward

Evil deeds show the virtue of punishment.

Chaos and disorder. War, famine, pestilence and death are the minions of Evil. Lately, even religion, which to a lot of humanity is viewed naively as being completely free of corruption, has also become a minion of Evil. Never underestimate the strength and cunning of Evil. Ha ha ha ha , ahhhh ha ha ha ha...fly my pretties!
