This weekend I participated in a nice male foray. It so happened that the overarching theme of this trip was to reflect on life. Van, drove from Warsaw to discuss, pray, and reflect on themselves. And so it has made that I participated in two sermons, each of which was different ... Each of them responded to me, at least in part on questions that somewhere there, inside myself for some time, I wear ... However, at last, in an absolutely clear, I realized that the world is built on the antagonism of good and evil. These are the real forces that operate customized in a specific manner that we did not get (bad) or they arrived (good), the objective is ... Exactly what? I asked people "what is their purpose of life" that correspond well to live, raise children well .... To the question whether the goal is not the salvation of the majority of people smiling, thinking that as a joke, and when they see that the question is asked in earnest, that correspond not because it's such a myth, a metaphor and what is in that case, the Buddhists and the Egyptians from the time of the Pharaohs?
It also enforces a specific picture of the world. Fig.1 The image shows "no-man's-land strip of" enforced by the pragmatism of life. Ot neither good nor evil ... "It is just life." On one side of the belt is a good man's land, which Ochojska (I love it!) Owsiak, John Paul II, Padre Pio ... These are icons, and good managers. Where we szaraczkom to them ...
the other side of the belt no man's land, is evil. Hitler, Stalin, but whether that Ratko Mladic (Srebrenica massacre) is now we do not know ... Evil is also bullying the weak and unsuitable, but the killing of defenseless kittens, and small focząt ... It is evil ...
We certainly are not the tray. And that sometimes lie, betray, mataczymy, do not pay taxes, steal electricity, not doważymy something, wash moldy sausages, lie at the request of the chief editor of the newspaper, do not pay fees owed to the author, we are a spokesperson for the company that we know that he is using people in 101 łajdackich ways to introduce to the market prices of the 26 hidden charges, steal someone's intellectual property on the Internet? Why, it is only a "compromise of life. " Besides, "everybody does", and this is not evil, because as we've established: the evil that Hitler, Stalin and perhaps Ratko Mladic. And those who kill small defenseless baby seal ...
When asked about the devil, most of us smile indulgently and indulgently, leaving that question unanswered in the chest with muskets, steam engines, and rural papirusami gusełkami ...
So there is both good and evil, and we live among them just like that ...
under the influence Saturday's sermon, I realized that there is something such as a strip of no man's land. There is ONLY GOOD AND EVIL ONLY. GOOD fights we came to our fundamental goal is the salvation of the soul, and all possible EVIL APPROACHES dissuades us from this, distracts us, shows us irrelevant targets, surrogate, secondary and unworthy of our attention and most of all lies.
"Only the truth sets us free ..."
even a small lie, this is no innocent and socially sanctioned strip of no man's land. When a tobacco company spokesman said that there is no confirmed evidence of harm of smoking, a discount store spokesman said that labor standards and the dignity of the employee are met, yet knowing that it is not, then they both stand with Goebbels in the same side of EVIL. Except that they are adepts, and not their master ... Because such a company may be unable to find a spokesperson for any money, after two years of unsuccessful search that he thought for himself and his action .. But since it is a man who wraps the dirty deeds in the beautiful words .... Carouse soul!
Word
everything that is not true is a lie,
what is not good, the bad,
and what is not charity is reluctant
and what does not lead to that end is pointless wandering ...
word, just standing firmly, deliberately, eagerly, cogently and convincingly on the side of good, does not stand on the side of EVIL.
tertium non datur
