1 would suggest that we shouldn’t be comparing the right with the left or the left with the right or good with bad and bad with good because good completely covers bad on the left and the right.

I would suggest again that this is what John 1:5 of the christian scriptures is referring to.

John 1:5, KJV:

And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

The Gospel of John, unlike the other three Gospels, contains much poetry such as the above. 'The light' is Jesus and 'the darkness' is the sinful world. The tone of John 1.5 is devotion to Jesus Christ. John is not claiming that God did not create natural or moral evil, but that JC shows us how to behave ourselves in the face of moral evil.

We should compare good and bad otherwise we could not agree with the moral teaching of Jesus . After all, if God is the pancreator then God gave mankind the ability to reason. Ignorance and poor judgment is not in character with Jesus.

Jesus preached to both clever people and ignorant rustics. You are out of your depth, Joshua, and should not do theology unless you have studied it impartially. "Who hath ears to hear let him hear".

Where am I?
I just woke from my arvo nap and found myself in a far right Christian rally.
Which way is the exit doors?

Better than running away, Tommo, learn the jargon and the poetry of the opposing side.

Joshua is no deliberate liar or cheat like the self-styled Christians you refer to, and has always listened to objections.

I would suggest that the historical records state that we should not go to the right or the left and that God became sin for us.To go to the right or the left is dualistic; double minded.Historical records state that light has covered darkness to the right and the left and that this is all of Gods doing.Metaphorically,the pathway has been made straight.That is my understanding.There is a lot of theological nonsense out there that makes no sense at all, I do agree with you.

I have suggested that +/-=+/- which is natures formula agrees with the above.All sciences are interconnected.

I have my doubts that you know anything of historical records. You have never appeared to be a history student.

I would suggest that evolution is a total myth pampered to by atheist because they think it is proof of their religious science and philosophical belief systems.

There is never any mention of the “I am” …Awareness….or consciousness.

How can an atheists have an opinion on anything if they don’t believe they even exist?
