3: Who Created Evil? (Answering the Problem of Evil part 3)

In a perfect world, all things are allowed except to destroy perfection. If you do, the world becomes “good-and-evil”. So “of the Tree of the Knowing of good-and-evil you shall not eat”. The untouched parts remain good, but dysfunctional because the part destroyed leaves a chasm where Evil arises.

Nr 3 is the key episode of the series about "the Problem of Evil". The Creation Stories work like philosophical parables that show how God can be good and creator of all things, and not be the creator of Evil. Each part is something to think about, yet makes up a part of a bigger thread of ideas.
I have deliberately kept them as short and simple as reasonable, -this is not enough to cover the subject in depth- but enough to get through easily and grasp the point. In any case, length and academic wording are not the same as profundity.
At the end of the day, however, there is only one important thing to make your mind up about - and only you can do it for yourself: Not “what -ism is this?", "who influenced it?" or “what background does this person have?" but the ultimate question that finally matters and the only truly valid ground for accepting, rejecting or believing anything at all: "Is This True?"
