Is there good in evil?
Scriptures tell us that god created everything good and evil for his pleasure.
If we are to emulate holy thinking as scriptures say we should, we must try to see the good in evil.
Think of an evil thing, anecdotes are interesting when short. --- and let us see if we can see the good in it.
As a Gnostic Christian, who uses logos more than mythos, and being dualistic, I can usually fathom both sides.
God seems to think there is good in the evil he sends us as it gives him pleasure. That is scripture.
Let us find the pleasure in the pain.
Your insight may give us a key to understanding.
