Phew! That is a loaded question/statement.
Yeah, itās like whoās going to debate whether God exists if there were no atheists to argue about it.
Back to Why is there so much evil in the worldā¦
Pain and fear and suffering are products of evolution in life on earth. Those things are largely unnecessary in a social species but extremely valuable for individual survival.
Maybe you should live in Alaska off the land.
Money is easier than a barter economy. In USA cities people have learned to game the welfare and disability to get what they want without contributing to the economy and taking from those that may need the charity of other working adults.
So you say people are forced to work? How do you suggest they support themselves?
Not intended to debate anyone but 2012 was not too long ago and at that time nine tenths of folks with EB were elderly, disabled or working. These folks have not been gaming the system.
What can you do about corruption, oppression and social injustice? Exactly what you are doing: starting a discussion about it. Usually legislation is one major form of bringing about change. Throughout the history of the US such change has brought about issues of social justice, the end of child labor, slavery and numerous working conditions. More folks are using social networks to establish more change.
Itās only a problem if you believe in God , if you donāt then , good and Bad is to be expected.
i dont believe god gets out of bed in the morning wondering what ā ā ā ā he can do today
if i was god i would be a force for good
No you donāt get it , evil as you put it is not āgodāsā responsibility. Why wouldnāt there be bad in the world? You seem surprised by it.
not suprised, just curious i guess,
iāve had my fair share of it
Focus on the goodā¦ there is lots of good tooā¦ and as you focus on the goodā¦ you meet more good people.
Everything is consequenceā¦
A company off shores their jobs and puts people out of workā¦ and people end up homelessā¦ that is bad
We help the homeless find a different pathā¦ find a homeā¦ we combated that consequence.
Exactlyā¦ the more we focus on somethingā¦ the more we see it. Itās like how the closer my Mom looks at my placeā¦ the more dust she sees.
The news doesnāt put positive stuff up any moreā¦
Itās like the thing about gaining pleasure from other peoples failingsā¦ the news feeds all feature āfunny failuresā āfunny injuriesā letās all laugh at this guy who broke his legā¦ people through peer pressure get conditioned to take pleasure in others misery.
Be the one to stand up and sayā¦ thatās not funny. Iām going to help someoneā¦ not point and laughā¦ that combats it.
Being the one who doesnāt follow the groupā¦ like the story of the emperors new clothsā¦ just one voice of reason can break the cycle.
Sorry this one got so longā¦ this is a personal rant with meā¦ I get like this sometimes.
Thank you for letting me have some cheese with my WHINE.

I always have the same question, the best advice I read here was to just ignore evil, another good advice to calm me down when someone treats me badly, is what my pdoc said, that anyone who is evil suffers himself/herself.

Iām not allowed to watch world news for that very reason, evil sells. It gets tired some hearing about the terrorists attacks and whoās running for president (thatās not evil just annoying).

Usually imbalance leads to decrease in public health. This is due to economic inequality, period
No they donāt. Men been blaming them ever since (if this fall from grace ever happened) of course itās starting some issues. But women (as something seperate from men) havnāt been blaming each other, quite the opposite.
then āchoosing evilā is exactly the opposite of your post? seems quite, well, schizo to me, lol .
