Wouldnt be the world be a pretty boring place to live in if its only consist of goodness

Because for me i would be pretty bored.

I think "boring" is not goodness. So, if there is only goodness in this world, there is no "boring" too.


But you have to admit that if there's no drama that is about a bad guy and a good guy then there's nothing interesting in the story. Try watching a Catholic TV Channel for 24 hours then let's see what happens.

If only goodness in this world, you will be interested and happy all the time ! Hahahahahaha. Grin



God could have made a world with no evil in it. Love is possible only for free moral creatures. And free moral creatures are capable of free choices that could bring disease, desaster and death. In other word there is freedom for everyone a capability of doing good or evil. This is why evil exist in this world.

Without God moral law we would not even know what evil really is . Evil really exist  in a his world but existence of evil does not eliminate God.

i think The reason there’s evil in the world is not because of God, but because God gave us the freedom to choose. Now the potential for love outweighs the existence of evil, because you see, evil is only going to exist for a short time, but love is going to go on forever. And all of the suffering and all of the death that we see in the world today are the result because man has chosen to make wrong choices.

so what is  you clarification on that question ?



Your right , God give us choice . If you read the book of Job in the bible it has a story that Jesus Give him everything as in everything. But then , Jesus says to devil , Okey devil try to convice him , try to get all of they money , Children etc . And then suddenly,  it will happen . But Job is still have faith in the Lord .

Even though his wife ask about God , if its real ? And if God really exist then why it happen to their lives. They lost everything and they are nothing. But Job is still faithful .

I'm not going to say that i knownevem an iota of information about why evil exists in the world. Maybe becaise it's too much information to actually process or it's too much of an existential issue to begin with. But i do think nature exists in a balance. light-dark, birth-death, calm-violent, and so on. These exists as a counter balance to the other. When one is absent, we don't appreciate the one that stays. Again, maybe im blowing smoke out of my ass, but that is what i think.

There is Evil in the world because of Satan and because of man's nature and evil has a tendency to multiply itself. The more evil men there are, the more society as a whole begins to take on an evil nature. If God did not give men the chance to be evil, there would be no freedom.

Generally speaking, any evil or suffering experienced in life is the exception and not the rule. illness is relatively short-lived in comparison to good health as are earthquakes in comparison to the age of the earth. Moreover, just because our intellectual capacity is limited and we can't evaluate what the wisdom is, doesn't mean it isn't there. for instance, in some cases, sickness results in the build up of immunity, earthquakes relieve pent up pressures within the earth, volcanoes spew out minerals resulting in rich fertile soil for agriculture. There is an ancient wisdom that states "Out of the snakes poison" comes the antidote" how else can one appreciate goodness without having experienced hardship to use as a comparator? would it be possible to appreciate good health if illness did not occur?

Evil started when Lucifer rebel against God. Lucifer want to be God and be worship as God. That's why satan wants all mankind to know him and follow him. He will do everything to get the  attention of people. He will confuse you,  he will draw your attention to earthly things so that you may not feel that there is God. Do you know that satan can also bless people? Yes he can. In exchange of one's soul. Sins rooted from discontentment of man.

There has and always will be evil. The battle for liberty and freedom is eternal and ever lasting. The best we can do is rise each and everyday, fight it back and go on to battle it the next day. Anything less would be a complete disrespect to those who came before us and those who will come after.

Agreed with what you said. But first we need to ask ourselves whether any evil remains within us or not. The first step must be the cleansing of evil from our mind and body. Only after we get ourselves freed from the evil, we can remove the evil from the society. But the second step is not a voluntary process. There will be some evil individuals who can't be reformed.
There's an evil in this world to test the goodness of the people. It is one way of enhancing our faith in Him. There's always goodness in people and sometimes the evil side of them just find it's way out because of selfishness.

Evil just to make this world balance. People will always choose to be evil or good to make their story in this world.

Because some people want others to serve him, want to lead others, do bad things, have good and evil.

People and people are always different character, good and evil coexist.

Dear Bitcoiners, Evil is just a correction of a goodness graph. This graph is unlimited as the price of Bitcoin. But to discard the people that don't deserve the benefits of the goodness, we have periods when evilness takes protagonism and tries to discredit the good.

To test us, we are created and tested. To be the best kind of creature in this world to fight the evil and stay good. And life here in the world just a temporary. It would end soon or later, and the point are we fail or succeed.

I think every man is naturally evil, the challenge in life is to fight the evil within us. This is the ultimate test of our creator, to know how we handle and restrain the feeling of evil within ourselves. This is why we have good and bad. We are guided by society to do the good for generations and that is the reason why.
