Is there really such a thing as Evil?

Question

Is there such a thing as cold?

You can have lots of heat, even more heat, super-heat, mega-heat, unlimited heat, white heat, a little heat or no heat, but we don't have anything called 'cold'. We can hit up to 458 degrees below zero, which is no heat, but we can't go any further after that. There is no such thing as cold; otherwise we would be able to go colder than the lowest -458 degrees. Every body or object is susceptible to study when it has or transmits energy, and heat is what makes a body or matter have or transmit energy. Absolute zero (-458 F) is the total absence of heat. You see, cold is only a word we use to describe the absence of heat. We cannot measure cold. Heat we can measure in thermal units because heat is energy. Cold is not the opposite of heat, just the absence of it.

Is there such a thing as darkness?

Darkness is not something; it is the absence of something. You can have low light, normal light, bright light, flashing light, but if you have no light constantly you have nothing and it's called darkness, isn't it? That's the meaning we use to define the word. In reality, darkness isn't. If it were, you would be able to make darkness darker, wouldn't you?

Have you ever observed evolution with your own eyes?

Since no one has ever observed the process of evolution at work and cannot even prove that this process is an on-going endeavor, aren’t teachers teaching their opinion? Are they now not scientists, but preachers?

Now, is there such a thing as evil?
“Of course” you say, “We see it everyday. It is in the daily example of man's inhumanity to man. It is in the multitude of crime and violence everywhere in the world. These manifestations are nothing else but evil."

Evil does not exist, or at least it does not exist unto itself. Evil is simply the absence of God. It is just like darkness and cold, a word that man has created to describe the absence of God. God did not create evil. Evil is the result of what happens when man does not have God's love present in his heart. It's like the cold that comes when there is no heat or the darkness that comes when there is no light.

I found this on the internet...I cut it down to show the main points. What are your thoughts?

Does anyone actually read the WHOLE question?

Answer 1

Human conceptual mind is a constant duality. Opposites are not really opposite for one cannot exist without the other. Existence is not really bound by this limited human conceptual view.

Answer 2

Evil does exist, Sometimes you can feel it, or see it lurking behind or inside someone or someplace. It is not the absence of God because God is everywhere. God can never absent. Evil exists. You may not see the physicality of if, but you can feel its damage. Its like the wind in a storm, you do not see it but can feel and see what it does. And the only protection you have from it is accepting God in your life because once you are His, no evil can touch you. You will still have bad things happen to you but you will have his protection and his assurance that he will help you thru everything and keep you safe, safe from evil.
