By the virtue of free will shouldn't evil be acceptable and allowed to exist? Isn't it pseudo-acceptance if you in some way neutralize a concept before you can allow yourself to accept it? Why discount any interpretation if every interpretation is ultimately stemming from a part of the Creator?
Is it not an avoidance of negative feelings or even of positive feelings if one attempts to neutralize every feeling by taking away from it its personal identity through endless dilution of concept?
I say, there is nasty, aweful, unpleasant, painful experiences and suffering, and there is bliss, happiness, creativity and expressive experiences, as well as everything in between. Do we have to negate the negative to appreciate and understand the positive, or vice versa? I, personally, accept the full spectrum without trying to change the spectrum. Nasty, unpleasant, though largely subjective, does exist. Just as there is also bliss.
There is evil in the world, and I do not say this to point at a boogeyman or to suggest fear of it. There is also good in the world. Men and women choose with their hearts but it is often very dofficult because the planetary mind has had so much dissonance woven in to it.
The fact is that entities have the right to choose AND the right to have access to every choice. So, maybe at some point we will unanimously decide to release attachment to one side or the other, but as it appears to me now there is much preliminary work to be done. Each is still choosing for themselves, and not all will choose love and compassion, some will choose deception and torture as their tools.
I say this with the utmost love to all, a warning that there are predators of a spiritual kind lurking the world. The greatest strength is always in community and the power of the strength of many united, even if it is only two people. Remember, you are not alone for there is no separation in reality.
