BellaOnline Forums Religion and Spirituality Philosophy What is evil?

Yes, I highly recommend the movie Avatar. Because of the massive advertising on its 3D effects, many people do not realize the depth of this movie. It is so much greater than it appears in the trailer.

I love your signature "Walk in Beauty & Harmony". Whenever I see your post, it gives me a little reminder to live my live in a more balanced way.

Thanks Phyllis.

Yes, thank you Phyllis.

I once underestimated the important value of beauty. It is more profound than I ever knew.

EVIL IS WATCHING YOUR LOVED ONE DIE THE OPPOSITE OF E V I L IS TO L I V E Jamie

I don't think that physical death or dying is evil. I had to witness loved ones passing over.

But your comment of the opposite of EVIL is to LIVE is so insightful!

I think that souls came to earth to LIVE and those who chose not to follow the divine plan never can receive a physical body to live on earth and thus are the opposite: EVIL.

Thank you, Cara and Chi. I find beauty in life by appreciating what is all around me in Nature and also in the goodness of people.

In response to Jamiebond - I sense sadness and resentment in what you said. It is so hard and crushing to watch a loved one die. What may be evil about it is why the loved one died - maybe due to an evil act. I have found that one is never closer to Creator and the divine than when they are with a dying loved one. One can feel so very helpless watching a loved one die and the anger, the questions, the feeling of being abandoned or lost is devastating - losing the loved one is devastating. When we are so overcome with such emotions that is when doubts and evil may attack us. I pray for healing for you if you have lost a loved one.
