RE: Evil People are Often the 'Hero' in Their Own Story
We believe we have a "right to life" and "personal sovereignty". The fruits of these beliefs have been quite grand. Does "God" (insert whatever your conception of the powers that be or natural law in place of God) care? Does God think these things are good too? Why does God allow dictators and totalitarians who hurt people? How can we say that the "right to life" or "personal sovereignty" are "good" when societies can be maintained on different "evil" values?
There is no externalized will-power over us from some imaginary being ;) We projected ourselves outwards and created a being to try to explain reality in reference to ourselves. Imagining there must be some "cosmic order" that controls and regulates things in some "cosmic ledger".
