RE: There is good in all of us

in #philosophy8 years ago (edited)

Thank you! You summed up the point very succinctly.
I gather that @ungratfulchump would agree with that from the latest post which clarifies the original post: Evil does exist, but that doesn't mean we should cast out evil people - or we would all be cast out.

As Paul put it:

Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but enjoy the company of the lowly. Do not be conceited. Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Carefully consider what is right in the eyes of everybody. If it is possible on your part, live at peace with everyone.…
Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. -- Romans 12:17-21

Sort:  

Evil exists due to our standards. And that shouldn't mean we need to cast them out to resolve the issue. But one thing I think you and I will have different views is that we can also change the standards as well as how we understand people to help everyone. I assume you will not believe in this since you apparently gather your morals from god. But if nothing else, hopefully we can all understand that everyone gets to one point or another over time. They are not evil from the start. They build up that evil for reasons, and we should address them. Thanks for still talking with me and my craziness. :D
