To think that an earthquake is 'evil' is childishly foolish!

Why does God allow evil...?
'Good' and 'evil' have their existence in the unSaved judgmental dualistic mind of the beholder!
There are equal amounts of (whatever) 'good' (is) and the same for evil in the Universe.
The Universe is perfectly balanced;
The First Law of Soul Dynamics; "For every Perspective, there is an equal and opposite Perspective!"
For us to imagine/conceptualize 'good', we must imagine 'evil'.
Such judgment is not made by the Saved!
There is neither good nor evil, there is just God!
The very question of "why does God allow evil" (is so fraught with fallacious assumptions and ignorance that the pursuit of the question) is no more than vain mental/ego masturbation, which is what philosophy (without science) is.

Free-will/Choice vs Determinism (and their bastard children 'compatibility and in-compatibility)


The "free-will/choice' vs 'determinism' argument is already a fallacy; a false dilemma.
That they are already a fallacy, it shouldn't be shocking that there is a superior theory.
The quote from Feynman at the end is the death knell of both 'free-will' and 'determinism' and their bastard children 'compatibilism and un-compatibilism!
But first, a definition;
"Free-will/Choice"; an egoically satisfying theory as to the meaning of a feeling/thought (ego). Get it?
Whether the concept of 'free-will/choice' is anything more than an egoic delusion seems to be simply answered by 'deconstruction'.
The punch line is that All is One! The Enlightened/Saved, Mystic know this experientially. Quantum physics certainly supports this.
So, starting from this point, One single Universe, in perfect balance...
One Truth perceived by Consciousness through infinite unique Perspectives (Souls), us.
Not anything is actually moving, time is the theory to 'splain the illusion of motion, and now there are concepts of a 'self' distinct from Self with the ability to alter the entire Universe to, most often, make their own little life a bit more comfortable. After all, if you could actually 'change' anything, in the great One, you'd have to also 'change' everything! Talk about an ego trip, a God complex, no wonder people believe in 'free-will/choice'.
Not to mention that everyone has the Godlike ability to alter the Universe for a Big Mac!
Is this not the very definition of 'chaos'?
The concept/belief does have quite the twitching support group, though. I suspect that the notion of free-will/choice is just another acquired belief virus. The symptoms of the defenders supports that theory.
So, deconstructing Truth, 'free-will/choice' is impossible, other than as a notion/belief/delusion.

"The Laws of Nature are not rules controlling the metamorphosis of what is, into what will be. They are descriptions of patterns that exist, all at once... " - Genius; the Life and Science of Richard Feynman
