In my opinion, 'evil' is anything which goes against the basic goal of God to interconnect.

I would say that both of our descriptions are inclusive of each other. I believe the thing which binds us all as being profoundly human and good in nature is that part of ourselves which is connected to God...basically, to interconnect with one another at all, we must acknowledge that part of ourselves which we know to be God.

Just remember that you're standing
On a planet that's evolving, and revolving at nine hundred miles an hour!
It moves at ninety miles a second, so it's reckoned
With a sun that is the source of all our power!

RE: What is evil and is it real?
I think he means something more along the lines of the essence of self or spirit, not necessarily of the Holy type, not emotion.


"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post

"A lot of people are unwilling to acknowledge anything that contradicts their worldview. So telling them that it's false doesn't necessarily slow them down. That's how urban legends get started for the most case. Like the woman who supposedly put her poodle in the microwave to dry it off. And it exploded." David Mikkelson (snopes)
