And that if you cease your injustice and repent for who you have become and remember who you were meant to be, God will forgive and love you and you will become an adored beloved of God and all the beloveds of God.
To quote the founder of Mormonism, as represented in Cartoon-form in the South Park episode Super Best Friends:
Quote:We all believe in the power of good over evil. Except for Buddha, of course, who doesn't believe in evil. [Buddha shrugs and grins]
I'm with the Buddha on this one
I don't think 'evil' is a helpful word for the misguided, just as I don't think 'lazy' is a helpful word for people who need motivation to get their ass to work.
