    Is that to purge the evil that you decided you've done?

    Recognizing what is evil and purging its influence within the individuals Spirit and society in total.

    I guess the main point you're saying is 'think only good thoughts and only good can come from them' - rather than purge them now for a better after-death (in the garden) experience, I think if you purge them now, you will enjoy the rest of it...here & now.

    I think you do not have to wait till you die for the benefit of clean thought. By practising it now it creates good in your life right away and that benefits you for the rest of your life.

    Bad thoughts are good. Without evil people the world would have been over populated about 10,000 years ago.

    I think what he is referring to is Hitler exterminating the Jews. Which is rather sickening that people would actually think that and look upto to Hitler for saving the world from overpopulation??!!! Which the whole overpopulation argument is a joke in itself.

    I'm not sure they're good but I do believe they're necessary. Yin/Yang etc.. for every good thought somebody thinks, it creates a bad thought somewhere else.

    Complexity is evidence of a higher power because how can you expect one to believe that the entire universe or multiverse came to existence by accident? Ok, the Big Bang happened and then stars, galaxies and planets started to form but before that big bang, there was nothing so where did those particles that collided come from? Nothing is nothing and that's really not a hard concept to wrap your head around - where did these particles come from? How did three-dimensional space we live in form? How did near-perfect living creatures form who can look after themselves, who have hearts to pump blood, lungs to breath, brains to think come to existence, is it because some particles happened to collide in nothing? That might sound stupid but that's the concept that scientists are laying down for you, the big bang created space-time so before the big bang there was nothing so logic would dictate the the particles collided in 'nothing'.

    It's all too perfect so there has to be another explanation.

    If you can't explain something, say God did it, because he moves in mysterious ways. XD

    Obviously the point is to purge evil in this life for the Spirit to be admitted into the next - the Outerworld.

    Odd you believe in Yin/Yang as stated - There is only one Spirit and one path - duplicity is an invalid philosophy that has not yet reached a conclusion that is a requirement to understanding life, choices used in reaching a final and real conclusion.

    How is that obvious? To me it's obvious that being good (purging bad thoughts) in this life will bring a better life now, not later, though that may be a possibility, I wouldn't say 'that's obvious' its for afterlife.

    I agree completely it is life's goal irregardless - a conclusion is possible and for that reason the Outerworld also must exist or we are to be its Creators as our true destiny.
