14. Pulling up the weeds.

OK…..I have a burning question to ask of ya all. I am not a religious type and I am not sure what I believe in. I know there is something out there but I am not sure what it is and I cannot nor will I name it as god. I guess one would call me an agnostic .

OK…let’s say if there is a god why does he and I am sure it is a he, why does he allow for this evil crap shite to exist to plague and hamper mankind’s development and progress. I know what Joseph Campbell has said that the whole of the universe is made up of dualities and that you cannot have good, without evil.

However, is there not enough good people in this world to make the world a more fitting and reasonable place in which to raise and nurture the next generation.

It’s like…you are what you eat. Why allow so much evil to invade, dwell and intrude on the peace of this planet and its people. It is a choice that each, and every one of us must make and then only working together can we confront such malice and deny it a place in which to grow and prosper. How does your garden grow? You pull up the weeds.
