THE LAW OF THREE (82) AND THE FORCE OF EVIL
"I form the light and create darkness: I make peace and create evil: I the Lord do all this things." Isaiah 45:7
"Shall we receive good from God and shall we not receive evil? Job 2:10
-----------------
For how long has humanity been trying "unsuccessfully" to destroy evil?
"War is an attempt to tear God apart" T, Keating.
Blaming an "omnipotent"God for not creating a universe without faults:
"We often represent God to ourselves as being able to draw from non-being a world without sorrows, faults, dangers - a world in which there is no damage, no breakage.
This is a conceptual fantasy and it makes it impossible to solve the problem of evil"
Teilhard de Chardin
T. Keating in his talk: "A life surrendered to Love" refers to evil (negative force in the Law of Three) in an unusual way:
"This is an extraordinary life, a marvellous universe and the fact that it is plagued with evil manifests how humble God is that He lets his creation to get in such mess from time to time to evolve; anything can happen but with always the same purpose of finally getting us to allow Him to love us.
