Zone1 What is Evil and Good?

[rupol2000]

Evil is predation and collectivism, the dog and the wolf are the direct embodiment of evil.

At the beginning of existence, good and evil were separated by the great heavenly gods, but then the chaos of Erra came, and everything was mixed up.

The evil gods began to punish for the knowledge of good and evil, their servants resisted the fight against villainy, calling on the people to humility and hope for the blessings beyond the grave.

Thus the spirit of the Heaven died and the Earth again plunged into Chaos

Hunters have always had a place of honor among tribal people. You call it evil? I call it providing for their family.

Farmers did not find and conquer new lands, nor did they explore new places.

 

[SaxonJackson]

Evil stems from rebellion to God's Law. There is only one perfectly “good” being, and He's God. He set the standards and His standards are good. Anything or anyone who follows a different standard or rejects God's standards are inherently evil.

Animals are not "evil". Animals act on instinct there is no intent to cause pain and suffering.

Evil is a man made concept and does not exist outside that framework.

Never occupied. These are the wildest backward peoples who lived in forests and swamps. In the forest part of Europe, the Neolithic survived until modern times, the Evenks still walk through the forests with sticks. Their culture is still there today. Their ancestors are the Tungus, their ethnonym Jurchen is translated from Chinese as "slaves"

So why do you think people that raise animals to kill them are not predators or "evil"

I was going to mention earlier that animals can't make a conscious choice between good and evil. They do what they have to do to survive. Men, on the other hand, can make calculated decisions. They can look upon a person and choose to be kind and helpful or cruel and hurtful.

A person or an animals.

Humans are the only animal we know of that can actually intend to cause pain and suffering.

The hunters were the leaders of the ancient tribes.

Evil is the complete absence of good (kind of like the way darkness is the complete absence of light).

Genesis notes that creation was good. Then it notes that mankind wanted knowledge of both good and evil--and there it started.

What we have discovered and then rediscovered over and over again throughout our history is that we can take good and use it for evil...but then at its worse, good once again emerges and overcomes that which we made evil. Kind of like how any light overcomes darkness.

good and evil do not exist outside the minds of humans.

They didn't kill them. In India, cows are still not killed. And in America, on the great plains, lived a kindred people Inde, as beautiful, graceful and warlike as the Asian Indus. It was they who built the technical civilization.

a useful tale for villains, it allows villains to claim that we tolerate their villainy.

Then give your family to the cannibals and rapists, or feed it to the dogs.

Americans have inherited their spirit and greatness from the people of Inde

you lack an understanding the nature of the discussion - neither are always a choice and unwittingly make victims of the unsuspecting innocence without their knowledge of what was happening ... till they become enslaved, by evil anyway.

There is only one perfectly “good” being, and He's God.

- there is not a state of being that is perfect, gods are pure - only the pure in spirit of the correct type may be admitted through judgement to the everlasting.

does a j really know - good from evil - * no christian can. laugh as they may - (hint) the c-bible was written by the crucifiers.

You're wrong on so many levels that I would waste both your time and mine rebutting your claims.

There is no third link in your model - the killer of the predator and the protector of the innocent

The native tribes on the Great Plains were hunters.

So we don't have people who raise animals just to kill them? You know we do so are those people evil predators too?
