By giving evil a chance? No thanks. The Universe isn't interested. Morality is man working together. Evil is mankind turning on itself, just like satan wants. Satan hates man out of jealousy.Transcix wrote:

That is a very shallow thought. If we had no understanding of excess heat it would be hard to take seriously. Everyone has had the experience of things too hot, and perhaps seen someone burned. If we knew evil only conceptually, but lived in a situation where evil had never been seen or heard by anyone, but was just some funny idea, it might be that we would of course say that evil was not something we wanted - although we would have no experience of having anything other than safety, bliss and so on. But that does not make us anything other than innocent, characterless beings, who, in a crisis, would be utterly useless, because inexperienced and untried. You wouldn't even know if you could trust them.We can know evil conceptually without tolerating it in our lives. Just like we can understand the dangers of fire without torching ourselves.

Carl chased him off. He would spoof (over and over and over again) Daybrown's writing style so he just moved on ;-(1456200423 wrote:Gosh... Where did the time go? wow. :-)

I surmise, without Daybrown to pester Carl got bored and left too? That's too bad. :-(Tomas wrote: Carl chased him off. He would spoof (over and over and over again) Daybrown's writing style so he just moved on ;-(
